I am not an American neither do I support either of Biden or Trump but we have to rely on what we have seen them say and do and from what I have seen, Trump does what he says he will do. I remember when he said he will build a wall in the Mexican borders, then people thought it was a bad political statement but when he became president, he started it before Biden came and annul that project. Another case was to start the defunding of various international organizations, pulling out of Iran nuclear deal, pulling out from climate change and others. Indeed, some of the things he said he will do when elected as president made people to mock him yet he did them exactly as he said. Some might not be the best line of actions but as long as he said them during his campaigns, he did them. Going by this antecedents, if he say anything about cryptocurrency now, I believe he will do just that. So Trump will be better for Bitcoin than Biden.

The ways of earning and living for young people have changed drastically since we moved from the agriculture(field) era to the technological( Internet money) era. Many young people are willing to sit at home waiting for a freelance job rather than going out to work for someone and getting paid little shillings. Research has proven that the rate at which people quit working in traditional industries has increased, perhaps they have found an online skill or a way to offer their services with high flexibility.

The concern is very alarming this is because if limited young ones are willing to work in these traditional structures (Oil, Agriculture, manufacturing, etc.) how will they grow? The Gen Z workers (that is people born between 1997 - 2012) were the first to prioritize flexibility, personal well-being, and as well as intelligent usage. Of course, the internet money is way higher than low-paying jobs in those sectors, they can either choose to start their own social media accounts that would endorse them or pursue freelance work rather than entering the traditional workforce.

So if there is a way to create balance and bring more young people to have interest in the traditional workforce what would you think of? I was thinking that increasing minimum wages and granting more benefits like health, rent to mention a few would help

Do you think that exposure to bitcoin at an young age is a good thing in general ? I feel it should be taught based on individual personality and not to very young guy. This is because all young guys might not be responsible enough to invest and track with patience at young age. However, those who have the required patience can make very high returns on their investment by investing at an young age. So, which side are you in this aspect ? Do you feel that all young guys should be informed and educated about bitcoin ? 

Hey. I have Casascius 0.1 Bitcoin coin.
I purchased it from a large reseller of Casascius long time ago when Bitcoin was worth 1700€.

Its in the original (re-sealable?) plastic. Its not been graded by grading company.

I can load photos to here but before I do that I want to make sure I understand this correctly:

1. It's ok to share photo of the hologram with the partial address / code it has?
2. How to load photos here safely?
3. How to sell here safely? I read about using an escrow but the basic concept of it feels very risky.

Thank you.

Finally back in hand this morning...

The new slabs for the larger Kialara and 1Holdclub 5oz are HUUUUUGGGEEE :O

They will also slab the CaribbeanTreasures copper bars.

Regular sized slab with MyBits Lion in the middle shown for comparison

2nd picture shows a better size comparison of all the slabs

Before getting down to addiction, it first has to go through the act of greediness, from that desperate urge to win big, which will affect the amount used to gamble, the number of times the users gambling and even when there is not enough money to gamble the user has no choice other than to find every available measures without considering the risk.  Both factors has rendered many users to pay a difficult price, chasing loses and finally ending financially broke.

Aiming to become an MGA licensed brand and working white hat as much as possible. With better regulation you can work with better talent and stronger ambassadors. Regulation is good both for the operators, players, workers and countries that are hosting the operator.


I've personally implemented a sportsbook widget that was writing out quick content for match results, like a recap of what happened. Works great if you combine it with internal data and automate it through AI.

AI-Shortcuts (e.g. developing games, images, reviews through AI) doesn't match the vision of how a successful operator should work. I think that human work should still be involved. If you're googling a review of the latest mercedes G class, you want to read a human experience, not  AI generated crap.


I've already answered this, but in short, the provider is taking care of that.
RE; attacks - You have a platform provider who's taking care of the CDN and bot net attacks and it's their job to guard us from them, and they are successful at it.
RE; wallets - You have the payment provider who's taking care of the exchange, wallets, security and so on. Portion of the money is with them for faster payouts to the customers, a portion of the money is on the companies "bank roll" and then forwarded to different providers to supply them with funds. E.g. the affiliate system that pays out affiliate commissions need to be manually funded from the main bank account, but once it's on the affiliate platform, it's technically "with a provider".

 

If you create a better system to battle scammers, the scammers will invent a better system to scam you. It's just part of the industry, there's nothing you can do about it except have a department taking care of it. Connected with that, there will be collateral damage, and if a customer makes too much noise, you need to individually approach it and check if you maybe mistaken him with a scammer.

Right now I'm battling a group of idiots who are purchasing our domain names and launching replicas of the casinos there. So what did I do? I spent 5k eur on buying all the domain TLD's like .net, .org, .io etc. What did the scammer do? They bought numbered domains )) So if I own casino.com, they have purchased casino1.com, if I own casino.org, they've purchased casino1.org. There's just no way you can eradicate them and win.

I have never watched a streamer or YouTuber linked to gambling but I do follow some popular punters on Twitter and some other social platforms.

Yes, I have tried some casinos suggested or used by them if I find them quality enough to use. I have tried casinos suggested from different sources as long as it passes my vetting process.

I personally do not follow infuencers who are focused on promoting casinos, you have to be more focused on the quality of content you put out.

Once in a great while, an innovative technology will emerge that changes the course of human history. In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Internet was so powerful that it changed how the world communicated and worked.

Blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies can be a powerful change like the Internet. When it comes to crypto gambling, change is happening rapidly. Keep reading to understand the emergence of crypto gambling, why it came into existence and how it can continue to alter the sports betting and casino gaming industries.

The Intersection of Crypto and Casino
Crypto Gambling Provides What Bettors Seek
If gambling cryptocurrencies didn’t give sports bettors and casino gamers what they wanted, it wouldn’t exist. See below for the things that make crypto betting the choice among professional gamblers.

Crypto Betting Strikes Down Stringent KYC (Know Your Customer) Regulations
KYC regulations are rampant in the online sports betting the industry. The reason is that often when we play on a traditional online sportsbook we must fund our accounts via ACH or credit card.

All crypto transactions are recorded on blockchains. The transactions are there for everybody to see, but they don’t provide details regarding the transactions. This keeps gamblers anonymous for the most part. Anonymity and privacy are two things all casino and sports bettors crave.

Casino Game Fairness
Although it’s impossible for blockchain technology to help provide live sporting event fairness, if the ref blows a call, only replay can overturn it, blockchain tech does provide casino fairness. By fairness, we mean crypto casino games provide provably fair mechanisms. In other words, when casino players bet on crypto platforms, the players can prove that the outcomes are fair. This is untrue when we play on a traditional online casino platform.

Fast and Cheap Transactions
Cutting out the middle man, i.e., the credit card company, to fund our betting accounts allows for faster and cheaper transactions. Many crypto platforms, Nitrobetting.eu as an example, allow for diverse types of cryptocurrency funding.

BTC remains an option. But so does ETH, or Ethereum, and LTC, or Litecoin. Funding with Ethereum or Litecoin is much quicker due to both Ethereum’s and Litecoin’s consensus processes.

I knew that most of us here experienced doing an all-in bet whenever when we are already down significantly amount of our bankroll and already get tired to slowly earn back your losses.

I’ve done this several times and I manage to save my bankroll to profit/breakeven greater than suffering a total loss. I usually use the craps or mines to do the all-in bet to have a potential profit greater than x2 while I have more lifeline for my bet rather than a straight bet with x2 multiplier.

What game is your favorite to do this and what’s your record so far if you can still track it?

We are only a few months away from the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad or 2024 Summer Olympics that are scheduled to take place from 26 July to 11 August 2024 in France.

With EURO 2024 this is one of the biggest international sport event this year with participation of more than 10,000 athletes around the world.
They will compete in 45 different sports so everyone can find something to follow, and winning a medal in Olympic games is always something special.
Most popular sports are football, basketball and tennis but there are many more sport events coming.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Summer_Olympics

This topic will be used for posting predictions, news and for talking everything about Summer Olympics.

I enjoy the athletics the most but it’s good to watch live sports every day throughout the Olympics.

I like watching the football obviously but I got engrossed in the cycling and rowing for some reason in the last games, the sailing is fascinating too.

I wonder who will come out on top in the medals table, my guess is the USA or China as usual.

Gambling can affect self-esteem, relationship's, physical and mental health,work performance and social life. It can harm not only the person who gambles but also the family, friends, workplaces and communities.

So with all this I think if they put an restrictions on gambling it's not a bad idea at all, first why is gambling a problem?

Gambling can stimulate the brain's rewards system much like drugs or alcohol can, leading to addiction. If you have a problem with compulsive gambling, you may continually chase bets that lead to losses, use up savings and create debt.

You may hide your behavior and even turn to theft or fraud to support your addiction. So with my conclusion and my observation towards this gambling is really cousin harm to the life of those ones who are addicted to it most their families.

 Secondly what are the social problem caused by gambling?
(1) Depression and suicide
(2) bankruptcy, family-break up
(3) domestic abuse
(4) assault, fraud
(5) theft, and even homeless
Addiction to gambling is link to a range of serious personal and social harm such as those things I mentioned. These effects can be devastating to the individual as well as their friends, family, workplaces and community.

This are the harms and with all this are the reasons why, they see people who gambles as a distraction towards the society and the most people who are into all this are the addicted ones. So how is gambling harmful to the society, ills associate with problem gamblers are widespread and often go beyond and addition to gambling.

People who gambles can be at risk of this following categories of harm.
(1) Financial harms
(2) Erosion of savings
(3) Filling for bankruptcy
(4) Relationship conflicts
(5) Neglect of relationship with significant other
(6) Neglect of relationship with children
(7) Extend family and friends
( Social isolation
(9) Emotional or psychological distress

So I don't really blame the people who sees gambling as a bad thing to the society, meanwhile If the younger ones take of the steps of being addicted don't you think they'll experience all this as well. So gambling it's bad to the society nevertheless it's also helping in the other hands, to ones which are benefiting and earning from it.

What is the mindset of a gambler? On my opinion pathological gamblers play the cope with a life stresses. Near-misses and personal choice give some gamblers a sense of control, winning money. Others believe they can beat the casino and win real money.

So the mindset are those things that attract harm to them and the society because they are focused on the money, and that's why I said it's also helping some people in other hands and it's also killing some people right now in the society. Behavior also involves that makes it look bad to the society, while trying to get back lost money by gambling more( chasing losses) lying to family members or other to hide the extent of your gambling.

Risking or losing important relationships, a job, or school or work opportunities because of gambling. Asking others to bail you out of financial trouble cause you have gambled money away.

So what I'm trying to conclude is that gambling isn't something you should take as a hobby or as a means of earning just to make a living. So what are your thoughts?

Well, I believe that both Greediness and Gambling Addiction make our lives terrible. I was thinking about which one of the two reasons causes more disastrous in our life both in terms of mental health and finances.

It would be the base of experience or just purely an opinion but for me, Greediness is something that would really make us cripple.
"I want to bet more and more in order to win more. I will sell my properties so I can bet huge. " Greediness mindset keeps on the winning side, not satisfaction.

But addiction is a little disastrous, why? Because they can be satisfied with betting a small amount, at least they can gamble.

However, both can possibly happen in our lives when we can't control our gambling habit anymore. I prefer not the two but in this situation, I prefer to be just addicted rather than be greedy. 

Gamble Responsibly...

Hey punters, have you heard of the Abu Dhabi Autonomous Racing League? Maybe you have or not. If you haven't, Autonomous car racing is a rapidly advancing field that combines cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), fast mobility stacks, innovative sensor technologies and edge computing to create high-performance vehicles that can perceive their surroundings, make decisions, and race competitively without human intervention. -https://a2rl.io/

When we talk about racing, we talk about the drivers, compare their performances, and all other odds but this is kind of different. It is all about betting on superior tech. Would you bet on an autonomous vehicle? How do you feel about placing your wagers on a race where the competitors are machines rather than humans?

In the world of transportation, air and sea shipping are vitally important. However, while air shipping is used for its speed, sea shipping is chosen for the amount of cargo it can carry. One recent issue troubling sailors is sea piracy, especially in regions around countries like Somalia, Djibouti, and Kenya. Vessels are hijacked, entire crews are kidnapped, and they are held for ransom for months or even years. In some interviews with pirates, they claim that the lack of job opportunities led them to piracy, while others assert that former fishermen turned to piracy due to the impact of ships on fishing.

I am here to ask if anyone has considered this. We always have a choice. Piracy cannot be the sole option for personal economic growth unless it significantly contributes to the economy of these countries. It brings in quick and substantial money for the pirates, who then spend the money in their local economy. It functions as a wealth distribution system. Even people in these places might not want piracy to end because of the indirect benefits on their local economy. Do you think I am correct here?

I read this topic Is this forum getting worse and worse?

During the mixers days on this forum, some good posters were visiting this forum daily and contributing good. Some of them are in mixers campaigns and they were collecting huge amount of money but which might still be small for them if they are living in a well developed country. Small or not small, it is still money that can help.

I said the money can help because Chipmixer was paying $300 which is $12000 in 28 days and $15600 in a year. That amount is not small in a way we can call it small. It can still be used to pay for house rent and some bills in well developed countries like the United. Mixero was paying $250 weekly. Sinbad was paying $200. It went to the point that Tumbler came and paying $250 for 25 posts weekly.

Many of this good posters are now in Exch, Bcgame and Blackjack campaign but the payment is very lower than the mixers that have been banned on this forum. Do you think that the low pay makes some reputable posters to leave the forum in the name of no freedom of speech and censoring? Or I am just wrong about it.

One thing I know is that as some people will go, some people will come.

Particularly the unofficial rule number 13. In many cases he has been reported and posts merged but he has been warned that he should read the rules and follow them and he doesn't care:

I'm more along this line of thinking... AI spammers are taking a body of text they didn't write and copy/pasting it, presenting it in a manner that everyone is supposed to assume they wrote it. Its highly dishonest.


Apparently Google's new AI search summary feature is unable to tell the The Onion is satire and believes everyone on Reddit is always telling the truth.



As with the other chatbot models, this can create real problems, especially when it comes to presenting nuanced & complex information that others may rely on. That's why it should be banned altogether. I suggest the forum adopt the same AI policy employed by Stack Overflow (which has been implemented for these very reasons):
