1741  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is TRON more centralized than Eth? on: November 20, 2022, 06:23:31 AM
Once using the POS, both are centralized so it doesn't matter which is more centralized, but in terms of investment, I think Tron is already a dead project. It's been a while since I've seen any notable news or updates from it, I think if it hadn't been widely used in the use of USDT with its cheap transaction fees, people might have forgotten about it a long time ago. Investing in Tron is no different than you are investing in stable coins, you can use it to transfer money because of cheap transaction fees but never invest in them.

I think Tron is far from dead, Tron is fast and flexible, with low transaction fees... it's easy, simple, and cheap to use! I agree that investing in Tron can look like investing in stablecoins, the price of TRX is pretty stable at some low levels, and it seems it can't move from there for years. That can change in the future, I like and use Tron and I think there's some potential, for sure we can't expect some miracles (the all-time high was $0.23 5 years ago), but I like to believe that one day Tron will touch the $1 price.

As I know BC has provably fair games and you can test them on third-party sites, so with different verifiers, there's not so much space for rigging. When it comes to their in-house games...

But, to be honest, I am missing a point in this post! Did you make a deposit? And why on these images there's just "EOS zero balance"? Where is your betting history, where are your transactions?

I am playing on BC for so long and I never had a similar situation. Somehow I think that OP is not fully honest, he presented some images but I don't think just the ones we can see... where are the others? This is not a complete story...

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

Surely it's not easy to guess all group and knockout winners correctly, I wonder how many people will have 100% success...
1745  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Qatar bribed 8 players from Ecuador for the opening match on: November 19, 2022, 09:18:59 AM
Truth or not, this world championship starts to look like a circus. There are many controversies, starting with the climate in Qatar and the first winter world championship, migrant workers (slaves and deaths are also mentioned) employed in the construction of infrastructure, alcohol, and the LGBT population, which are totally prohibited. The desire of some groups to boycott this championship is louder every day. And now this bribing of players to lose games, somehow I'm not surprised.


1746  Economy / Exchanges / Re: What is now the difference with Ponzi platforms with cryptocurrency exchanges on: November 18, 2022, 08:15:29 PM
What happened on FTX exchange isn't a Ponzi scheme, it is a mismanagement of funds and a possible fraud from the management.  It is obvious that the anti-crypto media will take this opportunity to throw stones at the cryptocurrency industry.  So we just need time for the event to cool down.

As we know Ponzi scheme is a form of fraud in which belief in the success of a nonexistent enterprise is fostered by the payment of quick returns to the first investors from money invested by later investors.[1] but FTX does not offer a quick return on their investment that is paid by the later investors. FTX is an exchange and somehow uses their client money for other purposes.





[1] https://www.google.com/search?q=ponzi+scheme+meaning&rlz=

I never traded on FTX and I don't have any coins/tokens from their internal projects. I guess that makes FTX a Ponzi, they have/had their own investment funds/projects, and when people started withdrawing the tower collapsed. Of course, the management is responsible for this... we can only guess, but I think they wanted too much and their greediness eat them.

It's been a long time since we had a similar situation, but these things happen and can happen to any centralized service. Decentralized exchanges and services are much better, but people still need to learn about them.
1747  Economy / Gambling / Re: Poker tournaments why tournaments in other games on: November 18, 2022, 06:39:19 PM
Apart from Betplay which has some freeroll if we gamble $30 before the tournament, I'll try this on Sunday, if I don't forget about it. Last Sunday I forgot about it and I missed a game.

Could you write more about that? Is it like $30 every week before Sunday's tournament? Or you just need to spend $30 once and it gives you access to freerolls?
What is the table size, 6?






I think they changed this in the past few days, now it's "you need to have at least one deposit within a week" as you can see. Except for these details about the tournament, I can't see any others, so I am not sure about the table size. But definitely, it's a fast game with 5 min. blinds and 20/40 starting chips... just all-ins through the game and nothing else, it's not the poker I like to play.
1748  Economy / Gambling / Re: Poker tournaments why tournaments in other games on: November 18, 2022, 08:05:14 AM
...
around 2016 then fortunejack held a freeroll event and I've played there getting 1st or 3rd place in every tournament and getting free BTC there, if you search for this information on google you will find their old tweet here https://twitter.com/FortuneJackCOM/status/694582978865958912

but for now there is none I see there is a site like fortunejack holding a poker tournament freeroll event that even without a deposit I can withdraw bitcoins from the winnings

Unfortunately fortunejack casino site also doesn't host that event anymore even though it's a promotion that attracts a lot of gamblers too

I remember those tournaments! I was an active poker player before kids, I had a lot of time for playing and I could play poker for hours. Somehow it seems to me that in those years there was much more action in the crypto poker world, first of all, there were players and sites were trying to attract players with various promotions. In the last couple of weeks, I have registered in several new casinos that also have poker, but without poker players.. and that on the weekend when there should be a crowd. Apart from Betplay which has some freeroll if we gamble $30 before the tournament, I'll try this on Sunday, if I don't forget about it. Last Sunday I forgot about it and I missed a game.
1749  Economy / Gambling / Re: Crypto raffle game idea | feedback required on: November 18, 2022, 06:42:24 AM
...
First of all, a very tedios way to hold a crypto raffle. Going to be hard to do so if you are going to do daily raffel draws. Secondly why would anyone want to play your crypto raffle game if there are already lot of casinos that offers raffle were you can buy tickets for even cheaper price. CryptoGames offer lotto were players receive 100% of their winnings. So 60% is far less what people will  be receiving vs what they will be risking.

That's what I thought at first too, now almost every casino has some kind of raffle, and if not regular/daily there are some promotional ones from time to time. And what can OP offer more interesting? It's certainly not the house edge he suggests, it is abnormally high. He probably didn't even think a little deeper about this idea, it's not that easy to make a good online casino that will attract players, especially since it's not possible to do it without initial capital.
As some others have mentioned, this is not the first time we see a similar idea. I don't remember that one of them lasted a little longer.
1750  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Do you have Lucky Casino? on: November 17, 2022, 04:58:00 PM
I guess the longer we play we will experience more and more ups and downs... I am playing in several casinos at the moment, and in each of them I had some crazy nice wins, but I also have sessions where I bust a few deposits in a row. So I don't think that I have some special lucky casino where I win more than I lose, it's simple gambling... and the gambling session depends on the moment, the choice of the game, the bankroll, and the style of playing.

Amazon busted -95% at Dotcom bubble 2000
Amazon went up 60000% following 20 years.

This one right here is a great example that nothing is impossible and it can explode no matter how long will it take. It's all about thinking long term and holding on to it. However, that is not always the case though because in the world of cryptocurrency, you cannot really predict very well. Anything could happen whether if it goes crashing without warning.

No guarantees either if the market is about to pump. Same thing goes if we're talking about the "bottom".

People were saying that nobody will use the internet for buying things, but 20 years later people are buying stuff online more and more. Internet, cars, and some other things had the same beginning, people couldn't accept there's something revolutionary is happening, and no matter how strongly you are holding to "old is better and more trusted" sooner or later you will be run over. I think that the same thing is happening with crypto, it will take time for adoption on some higher scales, but that is coming. Like you I am not sure that we can predict the bottom, the prices can drop more... and who knows when the market will get some boost, probably after the next halving. I am trying to not even think about that stuff anymore, simply holding and waiting will pay off eventually.
1752  Economy / Economics / Re: If you want to get rich go UK USA on: November 16, 2022, 09:06:30 PM
The size for rich always makes the UK and USA, it can be the right fact because most of the world millionaires always come from the USA and UK, developed countries certainly provide good opportunities to become rich, but we must be aware that competition in the USA and UK is very tight and only People who have high skills that can be successful in competition.


https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_number_of_millionaires

I guess this is why USA or UK. Both are at the top of the list, and the USA is leading this race by far! In a huge market, you always have more possibilities. But there are no guarantees anywhere, in theory, you can make money anywhere in the world if you have a "product" that is wanted. And for sure there are many legal and illegal ways of making money anywhere in the world, we all know that.

Well, we are close to 8 billion people... I guess competition is very tight wherever you look!

Wolf.Bet just dropped a big update to their Sportsbook with a new look and new futures!

you can check it here: https://wolf.bet/sportsbook/



This is a big update, but Wolf is not so "promotion" oriented, as I remember they didn't have anything special when they added spots book months ago. I wouldn't even know about this update if it wasn't shared in the Gosu group earlier today.

Well, the new sports book definitely looks great, but I am not as active on Wolf as I use to be. I must admit that some other casinos "stole" my attention in the past months.
1754  Economy / Gambling / Re: Black Friday fever: do you wait for extra bonuses from casinos? on: November 16, 2022, 07:00:59 PM
Hey guys! Check out the MegaPari Black Friday offering! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5421125.new#new
this is a good promotion and it looks like you are really starting early in the blackfriday campaign, at least a step ahead of other gambling sites, but that doesn't mean other gambling sites don't have the same promotions, but apart from that I'll take a look at the promotion and how it works

This offer has an x20 wager requirement, which is very nice, it's usually x30 and over. For us who like bonus deposits, this low wager requirement looks tempting, I am not registered on MegaPari so I will think about registering and trying this promo.
Chipstars has 250 free spins for deposits over $125, with no wager requirements. I tried that this weekend, and I had fun with free spins, I even got a nice amount of coins from these free spins... I had the luck to hit a bonus round a few times. I just wish to point out that there are good promotions all the time, we just need to see them. That can be hard with so many casinos around, and there are more and more every month, it's impossible to keep track of all the good bonuses and promotions around.
1755  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: I won 9600$ in dice by mistake with 2% chance on: November 15, 2022, 07:24:40 PM
...

That is called LUCK! Itt seems that you had it as you ended up earning it simply by mistake which is kinda amazing. Conglatulations on that as if you wanted to earn and were doing everything you can you would probably not have won.

Yes, this is luck! I was lucky a few times, but I also had some bad moments when it comes to "accidental mistakes". In my case, it was usually with the auto betting feature, I forget to add some option and after a minute or two, I see my balance disappear completely or I made some crazy profit!

We all make mistakes, that's a fact. And sometimes those "mistakes" can be good or bad... I guess more bad than good, at least in y case. But the point should be in avoiding mistakes, not making them, and hoping for luck to strike you.
1756  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The pump of Trust Wallet Token (TWT) on: November 15, 2022, 05:25:15 PM
I chose AWC, which had a better interface at that moment. Now AWC is holding at half a dollar or around, but the all-time high was over 6 dollars. Both Atomic and Trust wallet had their bounties here, years ago, they had different drops as well. The very similar concepts between these two, both are multicurrency wallets, they support different chains, and both have staking options...

Now looks like the Trust wallet gained some visibility, and I can't say I am surprised. I like these kinds of wallets with more options and it was just a question of when will they get more popular. I guess when CZ helps with promotions it's even easier to get that popularity.
1757  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Buying the DIP Solana VS Bitcoin VS Ethereum... on: November 13, 2022, 09:34:06 AM
Would complete remove solana from the list just because of it's frequent outages.

Well, for now, I would stay away from Solana as well. Nobody can say what will happen with the FTX exchange in the upcoming weeks, the news makes me think that nothing good can happen with FTX and all FTX projects. But again, if Binance changes its decision and decides to buy FTX or just help them, the situation can change course.

So buying Solana now is a huge risk, but where is a huge risk there are huge possible gains. I guess some people are ready for big risks, but I am not sure if they are ready for the consequences if things go the wrong way.

Somehow it went unnoticed : BC.Game: World Cup Carnival Promotion with a $100,000 Prize Pool, There will also be a wagering contest with a $2,100,000 prize pool and a Tesla Giveaway - waiting for more details about that!

As you can see, the first promotion is almost free, you just need to be level 4. For the second one, I guess you will need some capital. I didn't see other casinos sharing their promotion, maybe they are waiting for the last moment.
1759  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Best Crypto Gambling this year? on: November 12, 2022, 07:20:05 PM

I totally disagree with this crypto gambling casino rating. How can they place BitStarz and mBitCasino at the top position. Fortune Jack is a better casino among all of these and they forget to mention stake.com.

Also, this is not the right way to classify the casino. They need to tell on what basis they make this list and reasons as why these casinos are better than the others.

You didn't read previous comments, it's just marketing. These casinos are paying a lot more for advertising than others, so we can see their name almost everywhere. It's why it's hard to find unbiased casino review sites, most of them are simply getting paid to advertise casinos and they don't think about their reputation or anything else, they just copy/paste positive reviews and that's it.

And I can ask again, is there anyone from here who is reading "Men's Journal"? Smiley I bet nobody!
1760  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Who will win, FTX or BINANCE? on: November 11, 2022, 05:57:08 PM
Binance as always. It's not yet time for them to be down to number 2. I mean, look at CZ controlling the stage, just a mere tweet about selling all the FTT made the market react in an unexpected manner. A lot of investors thought that Bitcoin and altcoins will be stagnant until next year and yet it moved crazy by just a single tweet. Cheesy
That's the power of being in the top of all the exchange.

I'm not sure if he himself believed that these tweets would trigger such a big avalanche. It resonated so strongly that FTX had an abnormal outflow of capital, all projects went downhill... and now they are facing bankruptcy. At first, CZ offered to help, but as far as we can see, he has now changed course:
Quote
Binance is backing out of its plans to acquire FTX, the company said Wednesday.
“The issues are beyond our control or ability to help,” Binance said in a tweet.
FTX, which was valued at $32 billion earlier this year, is now in jeopardy of collapsing.


We will see in the next few days whether CZ is just playing and wants to buy all that even cheaper or he will let them down the drain. It really looks like that CZ controls the stage and he is playing the "mouse & cat" game.
