Weldone OP. I think this thread would be of good help to the newbies and novice who have just joined crypto and this platform newly and have no idea about the Bitcoin story and history. I have read through for myself and I must say, this post is very rich in information about the Bitcoin story but however some of the  information seems not accurate but you can still do a proper research and update them as it is easy to edit your post here.

I know you must have had a long time researching about Bitcoin which is very good and I am sure you to would also have much knowledge about Bitcoin since you took out time to do this type of research.

Justice was served appropriately and the victims of the treacherous act of Sam Bankman Fried be appropriately compensated with the siezed assets as the case may be. His act were very devastating as many lost huge amount of money as a result of his carelessness. Sentencing him should not just stop there, victims should also have their own say too.

I heard he was asked to pay some certain amount of money as well. Does that go in for the compensation or bail or what? I really need clarification on it because that amount of money mentioned could go a long way to see through the affected victims.

To the best of my knowledge, Bitcoin is can only be staked on centralised exchange which I think it is not advisable to do so because you as the owner of the coin do not have access to it because of anything happens to the exchange, your coin is gone as you do not own the private key to the wallet. It is even better you do daily trading to make more profit or you hold in your own private wallet rather than spending a whole time and earning peanut.

Of you must stake with exchange, then you must stake a huge amount or volume so that your rewards would be meaningful and tangible to hold or you think of other investment to do with it as I would not advise or encourage you to do that.

This is interesting. I could imagine how patient the owner of that wallet could be to have held such volume of Bitcoin for such a long time interval. Possibly the owner could have other means by which they earn a living because I know that such amount is so tempting to hold with the price fluctuations.

Kudos to the owner of such wallet because It takes patience alone to be able to hodle for such a long time. This could make the owner a millionaire in dollars if he or she continues persistently holding for a long time interval.

Costly mistakes cost something very precious if I am not mistaken. You could have checked your receiving wallet address before sending your coin out as that is the ideal thing or measures to have been done.

From what other members have said, seems your BTC was sent to an exchange wallet address which means you can have a way to communicate with the exchange to see if they could help you get back your coin. Possibly the exchange could listen to you with proven evidence to claim ownership of the wallet address. You just could try this measures and see how it goes.
Goodluck to you.

Obviously I really do not think such features are available on any wallet. You can only stop coin or token from entering your wallet but not blacklist. Maybe that features might be the next development if possible that would be alright. Possibly centralised exchange might have such features only kept for their own use  as I have read countless times on net that some wallets were blacklisted by exchange which made me think they could do such and to their own reasons.

Actually, such features would be okay because the rate at which dust attacks occurs is getting out of hand. Some already known wallets already in the public domain which are carrying out such act should be blacklisted individually and immediately so that one do not encounter such experience.

OP, I was looking for the link to the video you were talking about on your post while reading through but I can not find any. If it were available I could have been able to get more facts and that could have been okay. I will advise you edit and include the link to the video so that people could access it.

I was having a thought over this topic after reading through comments and replies and I realised that creating a physical Bitcoin might be too risky and come to talk of it, Satoshi never made mention of creating physical Bitcoin in his white paper and I believe he never intended to do such. Although I understand that as time goes on there would definitely be am attempt to do such but would it be effective?

Bitcoin is a digital currency and not a physical one which makes the value more appreciable so therefore mimicking Bitcoin for physical gold would hold no much value because that is not amongst the reasons why it was invented. Bitcoin has already surpassed the value of gold so bringing it down to hold level would make no sense.

OP, in contrast, it is not a bad idea for one to invest in gold. As a matter of fact, gold has been in existence  long before Bitcoin inception but however, Bitcoin has taken over the market because of its accessibility and have shown itself to be the next phase of gold in a digital form or version of itself. Bitcoin is limited in number which is a very good point for price appreciation compared to gold which has millions of it in circulation which I believe might likely cause a decline in price value in years to come when Bitcoin is fully adopted globally.

In terms of safety and security, holding or investing in Bitcoin is more secured and safe to do compared to gold. As an individual, you can not go and buy gold on your own and store it personally without people knowing that you have such in your possession that is where the security risk comes in which is not so In Bitcoin. You can buy Bitcoin from any part of the world and store in your private wallet under your custody without any notice from any where. You can move about with it and no one to notice you. This is how Bitcoin is very much safe and secured to hold compared to gold.
I believe in a matter of time, Bitcoin would globally gain it's traction as it is expected to. Already there are.pro bitcoin group in various countries doing what the could do best to create awareness of Bitcoin within their capacity and I believe it would definitely yield fruitful results in less than no time.

I have come to understand that people who are calling Bitcoin names are those who are not well learned about Bitcoin. They are always quick to judge whatever result that comes out from the mouth just to discredit Bitcoin but little did they know that Bitcoin is now all over the world and people are tuning in to adoption and acceptance. OP I think telling people about it would help alot to change their mentality towards Bitcoin and enlightenment which is very much important to keep them informed about Bitcoin happenings.

Truly their is always a repercussion when one is hell bent on chasing loses. This is what leads to addiction. Chasing of loses is very detrimental to gambling lifestyle as a whole. If one decides to allow emotion becloud them, addiction is inevitable  as it is that emotion is in play.
That is why gamblers are advised to gamble responsibly and with what they could afford to lose.

I was wondering if this could be for real because I really have not seen any body that would expose their means or source of income that way when in happens that is their major source of income, never. OP I became curious to ask you this question. Are you for real? Do  you think people here are dumb ass like you to fall cheap for this trick? I think you should go to other platforms and try your luck there because nobody would come your way here.

Possibly the reason why they are not known here is publicity. No activity on their thread, nothing to show about their engagement here. No reputable member talking about them. Seems like the casino died a long time ago and and reappeared from nowhere. This alone would make people here sceptical about the casino and would want to avoid them. However, if they get engaged with awareness and publicity by contacting a good manager, their casino would be back on track and members would be confident in  their casino and would want to try them.

Making gambling as your source of income is very dangerous because there is never a guarantee that you are going to win any game. Gambling is risky and can be devastating to some extent if you do not quit immediately when losing serially because you just might get frustrated at the turn out of events.
Never deem it fit to make or take gambling as your source of income. It is not advisable and not healthy for a lifestyle. If you must gamble, gamble with funds you can afford to lose as the case may be. A gambling budget is advisable as well do as to keep yourself on a check and balance if you find it convenient.

It is good you get acquainted with the platform so you do not get yourself into issues. You can check out this board and see for yourself what is obtainable here. You should read them and understand them properly. On the beginners and help board, there you can ask questions of there is anything you do not understand so that members could help you explain things to you for your better understanding.


Here is the link to the thread for you to read about the platform. They are just some tips on activities here.

Indeed this is what a decentralised casino looks like. I have gone through your website again and I can confirm that you have now updated your tos. This is what it means listening to the input and opinions of others. You are a good listener and communicator. You understand the business principles and applications. I have no doubt you would go a long way.

Lastly, you should learn to quote reply that you do o not occupy the thread alone otherwise you would be tagged spamming your own board. If you can, edit and quote reply, that would be okay and it keeps your thread coordinated.

If this is the case then it means that when OP got registered with them, Belgium was not on the list of restricted countries to play or access the casino to gamble but as time went on, the casino added Belgium to their restricted countries and OP had no idea till he had won a big  game and discovered that his country is being added to the list of restricted nations. In this situation, if the casino did not send out memo, to her registered members, then they would have themselves to blame but if they did and OP ignored, I think OP would have to forfeit his winning and move on otherwise they would and should be liable to pay or allow OP withdraw his wins.

Thank you for acknowledging my contributions and comments but words without actions is of no effect. I had to peruse your website to see for myself again what effect and efforts you have made in effecting the suggested  observations but I could not see what I suggested you  do initially for which you acknowledged. I actually want to play your games but I would like to read the terms and conditions of service to see for myself.

Betting in excess is very much risky and dangerous although gambling is said to be risky and dangerous but that does not mean one should blindly gamble ignorantly to the point of gambling excessively. It is a miss normal and inappropriate to do. If you check out, most of the major winners I have seen and read online all had a little bet that is insignificant and the results were something else.

So therefore, as a gambler, it is wise that you gamble a small amount that can be overlooked if losing was the only option left but I believe here is not the end of the  road as it is more sophisticated than one could think of.

Over familiarity and over confidence in games and bets is sometimes too dangerous. This is the reason why some gamblers bet in excess and at the entire end gets disappointed because their expectations on the game they have played were outlived and was below their expectations.  There are lots of things one needs to know before gambling which are the gambling principles and practices. If one must be a good gambler, one  must be able to follow the gambling principles so as to outlive the short comings in the course of gambling exercises.
