1641  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Where to play poker with crypto ? on: December 20, 2022, 05:21:36 PM
Hi everyone,

It's been a while since I played poker with crypto, back then I used betcoin.ag but they closed their poker rooms.
Does anyone know a trustworthy place to play poker with crypto ?

Thanks


Believe it or not, I wanted to open the same topic these days... I'm wondering what is the best place for crypto poker, the most popular one, with a lot of players, good tournaments, and people actually sitting on cash tables, not bots.

Just recently I opened Betnomi poker, and they have some nice tournaments, I even started one... but I didn't check their cash tables. There's a talk about the Betnomi poker series: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5279745.msg61433779#msg61433779... So I will probably play there for a while before I decide to check some "old names" I know. But I don't expect to see much on SwC, CoinPoker, Nitrogen, and some others... I guess those are dead places by now, or with some minimum traffic. I tried a few new casinos that offer poker, but without players at all.

Anyway, I would like to see some suggestions as well...

The Binance blockchain is also created on the Ethereum platform. It's just that he has a different network, and nothing more. But it is also created within the framework of the Ethereum platform.

Yes, it's how Binance started, but:

Quote
Binance Coin was originally issued as an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain. In 2019, Binance launched its Binance Chain blockchain, now known as BNB Beacon Chain. The BEP-2 BNB coin was introduced as this chain's native token, and users of the old ERC-20–compliant BNB token swapped it for the new token at a 1:1 ratio.

Seems like free ride for the marketing guys. Just stick a bitcoin name into your crypto related website and boom, you are all set to gain huge exposure over the internet. Specifically crypto users will start jumping into the website at least out of curiosity and to see what it is exactly and what’s the offering from them.

Just like the way we are talking about it right now. Imaging if that project had another name then who would have published it here and who would have been arguing about it ? No one!

But we are talking about it because that is kind of marketing strategy mate.

I don't think it's a marketing strategy, it's simply a choice they made regarding the development of their native token. As I could see they just started with this, maybe one day they will create their own, but for now it's easier (and probably a lot cheaper) to do it on Ethereum chain.

Quote
Bitcoin.com, a digital ecosystem and secure self-custody platform where users can safely and easily interact with cryptocurrencies and digital assets, has announced that Sale B, or the public sale of the VERSE utility and rewards token, will begin on November 1, 2022.

Token development on Ethereum is much simpler. I think they have their own reasons why they chose to create their tokens on the Ethereum network. But we all know the many advantages of Ethereum which is even now the second top crypto coin because of its excellent growth.

Bitcoin.com is an exchange, they had some nice trading competitions in the past, but I don't remember they had their own token, maybe that came later. In the end, I agree with you, they probably had their own reasons to create their token on the Ethereum network, but they are not the only ones... KuCoin Shares is an Ethereum token issued by KuCoin, and I am sure there are other examples as well.

Well, not all exchanges are like Binance... with their own ecosystem.

Guys, come on!!

Sometimes I play daily in Bc.game not in the last month, but it is a jaw/faucet like any other, its probabilities are assigned, there is no PF.

I have received prizes without conditions and also BCD, but the important thing!  I am not in a casino to receive free things, but if they arrive well.
But if you are excited to win free things, it is easy to spin, spin... and let us know when your grand prize comes out without betting $1.

By the way Argentina champion!!

I bet Argentina to win, but realised 1x2 its only to 90 mins and not the full game. At 90 minutes its a draw of 2-2. So I lost still. Anyway, congrats Messi Argentina!

That draw in the regular time seemed like a good bet, it's why I chose a lower but "safer" bet:


Famosos is right, we should play for fun, and it's not like we should expect to get some big prizes without placing any bets... if some coins drop and find their way to us it's nice, but nothing more than that.

By the way, I guess we all got some lottery tickets:

So if a person with low level, he can not win nice prizes on the wheel?

I hope Bc.game's operator can explain the fairness of Lucky spin! Are the results really random? Is there a provably fair like other games?

I didn't say that. Even persons would a low vip level can win a nice prize on the wheel but if you have a higher vip level, the prizes on the wheel are a lot higher! Since the new version, I have only won locked BCD, but before I won a couple of times 50 DOGE, 1 XLM, ...

I also can vouch that with the new version something in method of assigning wheel reward has definitely changed : I have a very low level there and now I always only get  locked 0.01 BCD meanwhile in the past I was getting everyday a random differnt prize.

The problem is "that low level"! As Babygun wrote in previous posts "wheel prize depends on your wagering", and I confirmed that with my experience. With wagering, we are getting more chances to win higher prizes on the wheel... When I am active I get some coins from the wheel, when I am not active I get locked BCD's, 0.05. But as I wrote, from my knowledge guys who spin "Mega Wheel" are getting nice daily prizes.

Like in every other casino, it's all about the wagering.

Both of them will do everything to reach third place, so it's difficult to predict who will win here. Croatia is the favorite, and they have already reached the top of the championship several times, but Morocco really shined this time and after everything they showed, maybe they deserve to win and go down in history as the first African team to reach such high level.
Usually, the matches for third place in the world championships bring us a lot of goals, considering that both teams will do their best to win, I think we will see goals on both sides. I decided to try both teams to score & over 2.5. I expect an open game and early goals...



Good luck all!

My opinion is different.
Both teams have a very good defense so I don't expect many goals in the match.
I think it is a very realistic scenario that the match ends without goals, 0:0 and that in the end penalties decide the winner.
I will bet on this option.
It looks like both teams will play without several important players due to injuries, and it remains to be seen how this will affect their game.
Maybe Croatia is a slight favorite because of experience.

As you can see my prediction was accurate this time. I expected an early goal, but I didn't expect all 3 goals in the first half, to be honest... After that start, I thought we will see more goals in the second half, but that didn't happen, too many missed chances.

It's gambling, and one of the reasons for so many markets for each game is that people have different opinions. But in the end, sometimes we have a good hit, and sometimes we are make a wrong bet.
1648  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Are we ever going to see this on gambling platforms some day. on: December 17, 2022, 06:04:13 PM
Is there any fighting game like Mortal Kombat where you challenge gamers around the world taking a bet? I don't want to take bet on Mike Tyson or Joshua I want gaming by one self, I believe this is less dependant on Luck, this requires more skill than mere luck.
Yeah, this is a kind person vs person gambling, you have a point mate, would really be great if some day, we could have a casino platform where users can digitally challenge other users to a fight, putting down a bet which can be taken by the winner after the casino might have removed their commission.
I think this kind of game is already available on some NFT platforms like axie infinity and the rest, but this requires holding some NFTs which for some players might be too expensive to purchase, a casino building a game like this where users challenge other users to a game or fighting or even cards would be really amazing.

But in the end, axie is so different, you build your character. In games like Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Tekken, and many others, we just get a character with assigned abilities and powers. So it's more about the fighting and "fast fingers" than about the cards you hold.

These kinds of games will never find their way to traditional gambling sites. Maybe one day with the development of the metaverse there will be some projects focusing on PvP games with some built-in betting options, but even that is in question. How many players are ready to play and bet on these games in reality?! If I compare it with poker on this forum, too many people here just talk about it but they don't play, I guess it's the same with PvP games... a lot of talks, but when it comes to paying & playing the numbers show how many people are really interested.
1649  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does the bitcoin community currently trust Tether? on: December 17, 2022, 03:49:53 PM
I have a little trust in Tether, enough to use it to get in & out of some trades. A few times I gambled with Tether, but after that, I would buy some coins back. I never hold it longer than I need it...

I guess all stable coins are shady, but until now everything was fine with most of them. TerraUSD collapse shows that every stablecoin can drop big time and make a pretty nasty situation for all the people that got trapped holding that stable coin!

Just how bad is the bear market right now?
Historically low prices have endured for a longer period of time in the present bear market cycle than in any other.

So many hodlers hope to be able to sell their token this period of celebration but it seems to me that it might not be possible because if they decide to sell they might be selling at a loss and no one wants to be at a loss in their business.
And even those businesses that accept Bitcoin as a means of payment I'm still wondering how their businesses are doing now in this bear market.

So I would say that the market is pretty bad for those that are hoping to use their funds in this bear market. While for those who are not concerned it might just be an opportunity for them.


I would say the same as always, it depends on when you entered! This bear market right now is bad for people who started investing in the last bull run! But if you think about the people who are in long before that it's totally different picture, some coins are holding at some prices that are higher compare to the ones from a few years ago.

This bear market is not bad. At least not yet, I think we didn't touch the bottom yet.

If you are in twenties or early thirties and remain single...

I'm not in my twenties or early thirties, and I am not single... but I remember that time! Mostly it was about fun and entertainment. I'm not sure how big a salary would be enough for all my wishes and plus to have some leftovers. I was always short, and still, I missed so many things...

I guess it's a dilemma we all have to deal with. To enjoy life or to suffer without anything until you get more money? But it's not like a clear choice we can make, there are no guarantees in life!

And in the end, we don't all have the same opportunities. Living conditions are different for many of us, not to mention our characters and knowledge. Simply there are many factors that affect us and our possibilities. And while some people can save a lot more than one-third of their monthly income, many others are struggling to get through the day.
1653  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: FIFA 2022 world cup on: December 16, 2022, 03:07:27 PM
Meanwhile, France which is currently without Benzema, is possibility will not win in this final, although the current French squad can't be underestimated, but against Argentina and Messi will be the toughest for them. Also usually I tend favorited France for win, but this time I'm going to switch to Messi with Argentina.
Why? France goes to the final without benzema and i see no problem for france against argentina in the final without him. I think that you're undesestimating france. It can be seen from how you are thinking benzema was affecting the france while he never plays in the current world cup with france. Let's see whether messi can perform offensive against france or not. France never become an underrated team for now. Mbappe may able to defeat messi and messi may go home without trophy. The most hyped match will be coming very soon.

This will be a real spectacle, no doubt about that! Both teams deserved to be in the finals. The bookmakers give them equal chances, so it's difficult to draw any conclusion about who is the favorite here. The playing style of both teams is attacking, so I hope that there will be goals on both sides in this final! I wouldn't be surprised if see a draw and penalties, very nice odds for that!

I will stick with France:
I submitted my predictions and somehow ended with Brazil vs France in the final game. I chose France as the winner! Smiley

I thought they would play against Brazil, but Croatia stopped them and later lost to Argentina... I was close. Smiley
1654  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is There Any Crypto Casino With An In-built Mini Crypto Exchange? on: December 16, 2022, 06:31:56 AM
BC.Game and Chips have a mini crypto exchange... Not all coins/tokens are available for exchanging at BC, and Chips have higher fees.

....
If we like to gamble with USDT or SHIBA, just deposit these coins next time for comfortability.

We are the one who needs to adjust and not the gambling sites.

Chips (and some other dividend-based casinos) give rewards in different coins. At BC there is a wheel, prizes for some tasks and coco are in BCD, and there are other coin drops... From the experience, when you are a regular player after some time balances look like a real salad! There is something in every coin, and separated like that is almost like nothing, but combining them can be a good thing to do if it's possible.
1655  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What New And Other Casinos Should Do To Get To The Top And Edge Top Casinos on: December 15, 2022, 04:25:52 PM
They just need to do their job professionally and improve as often as they can... in all aspects! I guess it's one of the things that is easier to be said than done, but it's the secret of success! Work, work, work... be trustworthy, provide what's written, add more games, and keep the site clean from abusers.

The best casinos are attractive for so many reasons... site works smoothly with a big choice of games (live games, slots, in-house, sports betting, poker, etc), fast deposits/withdrawals, constant daily/weekly/monthly promotions along with "special" events through the years, live support in any moment, nice deals for affiliates, and random drops and props for all the players! If some casinos (new or old) wish to get among top-ranked casinos should work on all of these things constantly, and improve them whenever they can!
1656  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: The patience to hold is a gift on: December 15, 2022, 02:08:58 PM
A huge majority of the time the reasons why people can't hold consistently is either the lack of conviction(hence knowledge) concerning the asset being held, being overly-exposed to the asset, or both.

I agree with you, and doubt about what is being held grows with the arrival of difficult days. And those who overexposed themselves and did not expect that the value of their asset could go down significantly are particularly vulnerable.

Well, it's not easy and simple to hold as it seems.
1657  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Tipping during live slot, or casino games. on: December 15, 2022, 10:21:14 AM
...
In most parts of US, any payout of more than $1,200 is paid in person by the slot floor person. The tipping here starts with a minimum amount of $20 and can be up between 3-10 percent of the jackpot reward. It however, depends on the discretion of the customer.

Do you think it is necessary to give tips or it is just a tradition that is required?

I guess it's not necessary, but it feels good when you share!

My sister works in a casino and recently she and her colleague got a 50 euros tip from a guy who hit some jackpot on some slot there. There are always people who win and who like to share, it's also some sort of superstition, by sharing you are hoping to get lucky again in the future.

An interesting story from the newspaper the other day... Some guy won over $60k, with a sports parlay! He placed a $10 bet and he won crazy big. What attracted attention was that he bought breakfast for 3 employees in that casino (some pastries and yogurt, which is probably less than $5).
It woke up the internet trolls and everyone had their own opinion on whether it was okay or not! How would some of them act if they won so much in the casino?
Unnecessary discussion in my opinion... simply some people like to share and some don't. And tipping shouldn't be something mandatory in my opinion, then it loses its meaning, we tip when we are feeling up for that, and nobody feels like that all the time (if you are not a billionaire).
1658  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is your local game includes in online casino ? on: December 15, 2022, 08:38:50 AM
Can this game be included in a casino platform ? Do you have a local game in your country and what is the name ? How will you feel if you see it in an online casino,will you be happy to play it or will prefer playing something new ?

In Brazil there is the game of the jaguar ("Jogo da Onça" in Brazilian) which is a game originating from indigenous peoples that is usually played on the ground, on the ground and the pieces can be simple stones where one of the pieces represents the jaguar and the another 14 (which need to be equal to each other) represent the dogs.

This is a strategy game for only two players, where one of them will act as a jaguar and have the objective of capturing the opponent's pieces, similar to the game of Checkers.

The other player acts with the dogs and aims to corner the jaguar and leave it unable to move.

In fact this was the only typical game from my country that I could remember, I'm not sure if it could attract any audience on an online betting site, even because it's a very old game, few people know it, much less who play in casinos.



I played something similar with chess figures, only with pawns. 8 pawns on one side vs 1 pawn on the other, with the same objective, this 8 must trap that 1. As someone who played this game a lot, there are tricks to capture that 1 pawn... But your game has 14 dogs, how possible is it for Jaguar to win?

As always, these games are great, but PvP games are not so attractive in the gambling world, I guess it's because it's hard to make a fair PvP game...  we even had a few tries to organize some PvP games here on the forum and bet against each other, but nothing happened from that, ever! So I doubt that we will see something more, maybe one day in the metaverse.
1659  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why every casino got bad habits? on: December 14, 2022, 08:31:39 PM
You can’t blame all the projects blindly, because some projects are still working in project as a long in forum and real. So fake blaming of projects are not a good one. It’s true many projects get issues after some months. But if the project comes with the intention to scam the people, we can’t control them. Instead we should not participate in such gambling and skip them.

Well, some new casinos around are still without any scam accusations, like Neodice from my signature.

But as traffic goes up problems can/will appear, and hidden bugs and issues will come to the surface, it's why all casinos need to work all the time... developing and upgrading! With many bonuses and promotions, they need to look for cheaters and exploiters basically all the time. It's definitely not an easy task!

With many players on the site (the only info I was able to find is about Stake: "The platform has a strong track record with over 200,000 registered players, 8500 active depositors, and 3000 high rollers. So far, the platform has supported over 12 billion bets and has 1500 registered affiliates") there must be some complaints, for all sorts of reasons. And I guess many issues are solved, but the point is that things happen, and if someone is a fair player any issue will be solved.
1660  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The reason Dogecoin could fail in the future on: December 14, 2022, 06:33:02 PM
If it weren't for Elon Musk, Dogecoin would have failed long ago.

In this case, it is unclear how Doge existed before, until Elon Musk paid attention to it. Of course, having such a patron as Elon Musk would be good for any project, but this is not a decisive factor in the existence of the coin. So in any case, the Dogecoin community is more important than the patronage of Elon Musk.

Doge existed before, but Elon and his army of followers pushed Doge's price to the sky! As I remember he was accepting Doge for buying Tesla cars, I wonder how many people (if any?) purchased Tesla with Doge coins?

I agree that one person is not so important factor, but if take Doge as an example, we saw what happens when one person with a deep pocket and lots of followers decides to enter the project with full power! I guess this can happen again, to any other coin.
