In the world of gambling, we can not say that only adults will play or gamble. But nowadays there are many teen ager out there playing gambling without a parent's concent. Like one of my friend he is under age but now he is betting 50 dollar up which is pretty big amoubt here in our country. But for me if I am in hid position then all I can say is that I play for fun.
The rate of underage gambling have increase lately and I don't know why that os happening at this stage and time,  should we blame that on the availability of the online casino,  because most of the underaged can not visit physical casinos,  but can easily gamble online using their smartphone without restriction and this have lead to devastating result in the level of young addictions and other gambling vices that can effect the total well being of the individuals involved in under age gambling.

Another point to look out for isn't he fact that gambling for fun doesn't eliminate the tendency to failing into addictions and at that, we must have always watch out for that possibilities while we cash fun.

Gambling cannot be restricted to the people, it is we the people that will learb how to refrain ourselves from gambling in other to avoid been shamed, this same thing applies to the children we are bringing up, how early do we afford to exposed them to an open circular gambling environment, how well do we train them, how much have we invested on the underaged to know what's best for him at a particular time and be focused in life, if we sue the first gambling platform in our locality how about others around the world, isn't it better to control our individuals wards than what is beyond being moderated.

This thread always talks about how it is possible to launder money, and I have little experience in this matter, which makes me think that how can they launder money with casinos if they require KYC, for example a player who You want to launder money, deposit 20 thousand usd in cryptocurrencies, I imagine you have to bet I don't know 5% and from there if you lose it, you still withdraw it? because the KYC requirement is something quite strong, anyone cannot enter with such a large amount and then withdraw it to another wallet, that is what I think of those who launder money, that it must be very difficult.

Everything is open on the blockchain if you think you can use the casinos to launch your fraudulent hideout, but the problem is on how to know wether of the money deposited on the casino is from a genuine source or being stolen and kept there, which mens if the government cannot successful moderates stealing of government funds and properties in fiat finac banks authorities they can't achieve so with cryptocurrency as well.

Have you meet gamblers that are going way too deep into addiction and you try to stop them and they listen? I've never accomplished that before.

They always behaved deaf, like some spiritual power is in control.

Not until a gambler is deaf in hearing before he can be regarded as a deaf gambler as long as such individual will not listen to advise from others, he's considered a dear ear gambler, when we are talking about listening to ideas, am not focusing on the general ideas that includes the wrong and bad ideas, but no paying attention to what could be profitable to a gambler's life is a display of deafness and should be discouraged among ourselves, things like this aren't spiritual matters but personal issues than can be dealt with by ourselves.
1644  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How do you stop gambling (sports betting, casino e.t.c)? on: June 15, 2023, 12:38:22 PM
      -  If from gambling addiction you want to stop this habit, I think it will not be easy for you, because it has become your habit or adrenalin in your daily life. But it will not be difficult to do if you yourself are determined to leave gambling.

It's better not to have started than planning quitting because it's not that easy to achieve, addiction is not what we can just say by mouth and assume that settles it, there must be some practical steps in action to take which will help get over it gradually because some things were bot done by force but through understanding and application of knowledge in handling such situations just as in case of gambling addiction we are discussing

And the person who warns you about this thing also does something different, because it also adds a reason to not continue playing gambling from being addicted to it in reality.

The truth is that even sometimes we will discover that those that introduced gambling to us aren't a victim of addiction because they have been used to it and are matured enough to manage my themselves through it, that's why sometimes we shouldn't make comparisons in gambling.
1645  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: It's on! 2024 US Presidential Election Biden+Harris Vs Trump Bitcoin betting.... on: June 15, 2023, 12:07:17 PM
I was just wondering. If by some chance, Trump becomes ineligible to run for POTUS 2024

What else could Trump do than to take his fate and have it as it is, i think he has to realize the fact rhat he has wasted the very opportunity he had the very first time and i don't think he's got all that it takes to win again this time considering the aspirants he's contending with

what would be his reaction. Would he ask his supporters to boycott the elections (which is a very stupid move in my opinion), or will he nominate someone else such as Ivanka in his place?

The best is for him to nominate someone in his place and that will give him say over the leadership if his candidate emerge the winner at large, another option he have is to join and team up with one of his opponents, just to ensure that they secure the presidential seat for themselves.
1646  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Don't gamble if you don't have patience on: June 15, 2023, 11:49:33 AM

trading was the only that needs patience back then but now gambling as well?
isn't the reason why gambler's gamble is because they don't have patience and they wanted quick bucks?  just kidding. its the impression i have since time. and i gamble because i lose the money that my mother gave. to make an easy profit, playing cards is an option.

OP's example though is not about patience in playing a casino game. its him losing because he couldn't wait.

You could be right that some gamblers actually gamble because the needs some bucks and while some dont mind and gambles for run only, but yet if there's any gambler in a hurry to make money through gambling, he must first calm down to plan well how he will ensure getting that money and not loosing it at the ecstasy of getting it, it's just as applicable to the food we want to eat while being hungery and the food is quite hot enough, this kind condition need patience for things to work out as expected and if not, we may end up getting the contrary.
1647  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How to Improve Your Sports Betting Skills and Win More Bets? on: June 15, 2023, 10:38:11 AM
When I saw this topic how to get over it, I wondered how can someone turn a $1,000 into $xxx,xxx amount through sports betting. I was aware that it can be done but what strategy or skills an individual needs to be able to do it? I went into browsing mode as I have done earlier and found out the skills needed to get to the peak of sports betting. Here are my five steps to make your sports betting profitable.

1. The most important step is to Research and analyzes before placing your bets: It is imperative that you gather relevant information about teams, players, statistics, and recent performances. This information would enable you to make more informed decisions.

What do you think?
I only focus on number 1 because it is the most important before someone bets. If he couldn't analyze properly, he might not be able to win. For number 2 and so on, it will depend on how you analyze it because if you have good analytical skills, you can get the right team to place the bet. And for the value of the bet, you can adjust it according to the budget you previously set. Everything, from numbers 1 to 5 is interconnected but the most important is number 1 because research to find a team is the most basic for a bettor before starting to place a bet.

Everything work in hands to contribute to the chances of winning but not the reason to why we must win or not, but at least from our own level, we could present every necessary efforts needed to equip ourselves in gambling skills through learning and development, we are expected to take up some good control measures as well whenever we are gambling to ensure that we effectively deliver the best by avoiding any error that might be from our lapses while gambling in other not to reduce our chances of winning, what applies to one may be different in another's person situation.
1648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling is not a steady income haven on: June 15, 2023, 10:04:33 AM
Gambling is fine as long as people treat it for what it is, which is just a way to entertain ourselves, the problem appears when people want to make of gambling something that is not, so those that want to earn a lot of money with it are the ones that are more prone to become addicted, as once they fail to reach their goals instead of giving up they will keep trying to become profitable, then they may give up on that idea but they may want to recover the money they have lost, only to discover they will keep losing more and more money.
Gambling is only a way for me to get some more money in my pockets; I do not depend on it since it's never trustworthy to rely on anything that's governed by some fixed cooperation; it's unreliable. No gambler expects to be on the losing side; everyone expects to be on the winning streak. Gambling is never an option to consider for numerous sources of income; of course, earnings are not always recorded; some days, huge losses emerge. The aim is to examine good gambling tactics that will assist in printing more money in each game executed.

As for me i will not totally delend on gambling for a living and a considers it a common thing as well that most people don't have the deaire to wholely depends on gambling for a living, it will be so bad to only have a single means of income and one can later decided to make gambling an additional source of imcome just to complement each other sources of income but depending on it alone will cause nothing but inability to live up to expectations in life.

When you begin to find out some bugs and abnormalities with your personal gambling life, then try to give it a new dimension way of approach to make it more suitable that you are not found below average enjoying the benefit of gambling, I don't think on a normal circumstances any gambler may wish to quit gambling except he's that depressed and frustrated from enjoying gambling either through his own acts or what other people sent to pressurized him with gambling.
1650  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: How Big is the online gambling industry today? on: June 15, 2023, 09:25:02 AM
Yes, each can't replace the other but let's admit it, online gambling help us survive during the pandemic time. They are very effective as alternative to the physical gambling. There are risks in online gambling but that can be prevented. One of it is to be scammed by the casino.

We don't need to rush but we must look for feedbacks first if this casino here is truly legit or not. In case something bad happens to us like we lost our funds. We can try to report them to the gambling authorities including here on our forum. I already saw lots of successful stories here where a gamblers account have been recovered or their funds have been returned.
The gambling sector is vast, with no restrictions both online and offline, and the large number of people who gamble are extremely proactive in the system. Except for those who depend on gambling for a living, online gambling never helped us escape the pandemic, our savings benefit ordinary hardworking citizens. That was a difficult season for people all around the world; the pandemic lingered for months, resulting in more deaths in infected countries. Online gambling is truly stress-free and has more features than traditional betting. It has the same chances.

Online casinos is getting more attention of gamblers today because the whole world is rotating round about the advanced digital technology and people are finding it very easy to go along with this in gambling because the gamblers can through the comfortability of their mobile phone device lauch into any gambling platform and enjoy the experience with gambling without having any barrier to gambling.
1651  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Gambling is different from trading on: June 14, 2023, 10:29:43 AM
Gambling and trading are distinct activities with different principles and objectives. Gambling involves risking money on uncertain outcomes with the aim of winning based on chance. In contrast, trading refers to the buying and selling of financial assets or commodities with the goal of making profit through informed analysis and strategic decision-making. Trading typically involves research, analysis, risk management, and an understanding of market dynamics, while gambling relies more on luck and chance.

They are both different things and has an entire different techniques to handle them with, when you're trading, you're only investing your money for an exchange of a particular pair of currency or same currency to earn through it volatility, when you gambles, you're risking the chance of either winning or loosing your money completely over the bet you're taking, the whole and entire process in gambling is irreversible when you lost your money at the process.

There are a few things to look for in identifying good Bitcoin investor. Bitcoin investors need to know how much knowledge and skills they have about Bitcoin and trading.

If you have acquired this knowledge, don't feels relax and relent on what you know, always keep to learning more beca because bitcoin learning is a continuous process in cryptocurrency, we cannot know everything at once and for all, but we gradually keep on improving each day over what we already knew.

An investor in Bitcoin should have a long term perspective as Bitcoin is fluctuating significantly now if he has invested above the peak

Anything they like to do or implement is their choice and they can go ahead as long as am not in support for the use of centralized exchanges, enough of risking my hard earned labour wages on centralized ponzi, though i believe they will soon end on this issue arising but i also believe if there should be any form of changes then they would have communicated wich through their user's appropriate channels of contact through their KYC informations on their system.

As for someone like me, I doubt if the fuel subsidy removal will reduce the pressure on tax payment for everyone involved, they may rather take it as an avenue to increase the rate of community development and other things they are planning to do to increase unemployment, poverty, disease and so many as long as it will include a community initiative services, the tax is also part of what they use in giving back the the people what they want as development to the people.

The introduction of the use of AI is targeted on us having better and new experience and not to abuse it in any settings we found it being applicable to cheat on the stipulated protocols on such platforms, if the rules or protocols allows for thebuse of AI then it's fine and good, there's nothing bad in that but if the rules kicked against it, then there should be a clear understanding to why they want such to be strictly followed.
1656  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: I have betted 100$ on this token [BSC CHAIN] and I explain why on: June 14, 2023, 09:45:05 AM
this coin isn't even listed in CMC meanwhile there are even some rugpull coin at least have the effort of being listed in CMC despite basically just a scam coin.
make me wonder if this coin even worth a dime because i don't think it is, more over 30 thousand times increase you must be joking at this point honestly.

The funniest apsect of it is that OP said he has betted on the coin, though i don't know the terms in which he has used or stated in doing this but i know that he's upto to something for taking such decision even though it also appears to me that he's not minding the conditions attached to loose his money, but the only thing i have seen in h which looks appealing is the mindset for taking risk which he possess.
1657  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Will you invest in a project that might take years to outshine the market?? on: June 14, 2023, 09:38:58 AM
honestly i wouldn't waiting for a coin for long term without even knowing whether the coin gonna grow is such a really bad planning honestly.
i'd just settle with other coin that gaining good enough within just short term. with altcoin, you don't even know if coin could even exists for that long.

The controversial issue here is that how sure is it going to happen that the project will definitely whine after years of waiting and not turn to wasted time effort and money, someone like me can go for it but the problem is that there's no guarantee in cryptocurrency altcoins, everyone is doing nothing than taking their own risk, even the developers are busy doing nothing than to avoid mistakes and are taking risk to maintain their project to keep running.

If i know the formula then I'm already a millionaire now.
Hopefully i know how to find the next pepe, but the reality no one knows about that.
Investing on this type of coin is just pure luck, some people gonna get rich and some people gonna be poor because of this type coin like this.

There's no any formula elsewhere than everyone risking it out to take their time and research about a particular project and get satisfied with the level of findings and results achieved before they now make investment, they are investing yet knowing that they are also taking the risk should incase things turns out not the way they have expected, lucky them if the whole show work out to their favour because they will definitely earn from what they have invested.
1659  Economy / Gambling / Re: Information of Crypto Casinos License and KYC requirements on: June 14, 2023, 08:58:17 AM
In a relevant problem when casinos are suspicious or suspend accounts or block, it is very difficult for the player in question to have reasons to win those cases,they would have to open up a lot to be able to accept that the casino was wrong, but I start from a premise, if the casino Makes a Mistake, the casino quickly assumes and removes the player's balance, but if the player makes a mistake?I have not seen cases where the casino makes returns because there was an error and the Player asked for a lot of money and it was returned to him, I have not seen that, and I think that Something like that has not happened.

Placing claims against casino sites is a complete waste of time, given that you cannot sue a whole firm for a simple KYC issue; you must have sufficient grounds to prosecute them, and your chances of success are only 20%. They are built in such a way that only the gamblers are expected to be incorrect. Casino is well-known around the world, and it's even more astonishing to watch the judges playing casino games. KYC standards are required for the secure withdrawal of earnings accumulated from casino games played. It is the only proof that one is the owner of that participant account; failing to pass KYC indicates that gambling accounts have been hacked. 

Yes, the truth is that the ability of a player or players to succeed when they accuse a casino are very low, unless the casino has many gfailures not only with that player but with others, it is the only way that can be given to know the details and have a chance of being successful,but when they are casinos with a high reputation and trust, it is illegal to do so, you will not be successful because these casinos have already established their processes in a very transparent way,and also a casino with a high reputation and trust does not It will be clouded by a case where the majority are mistakes by a player.


Before any casino will set for launch and go into operations, they would have looked into many aspects to where gamblers are having challenges with using online casinos and try to fix as many as possible, yet the gamblers on their own way will always try to make use of the casinos to their own take and finds it more attractive but some few will still make it an attempt to go against their wishes thinking the casinos will recognize them and pave way, while everything had been stated already in their policy and terms which the casinos will never shift ground except the gambler comply to theirs.

The more we gamble the more we are learning from what we do and from others people's experience in addition to that, asise the fun we have while gambling, there are other emotional and psychological benefits we get from using an online casinos when gambling, there are other benefits we stand to gain whenever we gamble such as getting new ideas, informations, skills and technical experience in doing things a logical way.
