They are indeed inspirational, grit could take you a long way indeed but it doesn't mean that grit is all you need to grab that success. Grit is a factor that brings about a lot of options or other factors needed to grab that success, but it also needs someone to be able to accurately judge opportunities to be taken. And, a lot of luck as well imo. No matter how much grit or hard work one does, luck would ultimately still be a huge help down the road.

Failure also doesn't mean that you just did something wrong and need to try again, maybe you need to take it in a different perspective and take a different path which can still lead you ultimately to the same goal.

Most sportsbooks don't accept exhibition matches afaik? Since as you said, there's a rather vague area in it that most won't risk taking. I'd honestly avoid it if you can, especially if you're seeing the gray areas yourself. If ever I'd think sportsbooks would only put out odds on the match results itself, who won and who lost, and even then I'd doubt they'd actually add it since, well, most exhibition matches have very big skill gaps between the competitors.

Hmm, I think it's easy in terms of games? Most famous games right now are rather puzzle-oriented story games and action, fast-paced games so I don't think they'd have a hard time playing casino games. Heck, they might even bore themselves to death at some point if they don't really enjoy gambling that much. Imo what differentiates a gambler from a gamer is that gaming directly gives you that enjoyment experience through games, while gambling is enjoying the game together with the thrill of winning more money (mostly the latter though tbf).

Now Duelbits may have a function with their account system, where each account level has a set limit with each level higher having higher limits, or accounts under review have limits. Afaik sportsbooks themselves have a limit of bets for each match, so they may have applied it on each account instead of each match. And it is as you said, they limit it because casinos don't really want to go out of business due to a few bets, especially if it was from someone who has spent a low amount to their site. They're still a business after all.

Sounds pretty good to me imo. A lot of celebrities that dabbled into crypto have often used their popularity to push some projects into the heavens only to kick them after they're done with them. I'd also blame the parties involved for believing them but that's another thing, influencers doing these pump-and-dump schemes are intentionally baiting these people into believing them after all, so a huge part of the blame falls to them. I don't know what the difference is between the start of the craze to the current state right now though, is it worse or better now?

What @sheenshane should help in general notifs for Discord, I think anything outside of that would require a third-party bot that you can employ or custom make one.

If you also want to employ it on your own discord server (as a collection of different servers into one channel so that you don't have to visit them all), it would only work if the so-called "signals" channels of discord were an announcement channel, where you can follow it on your own discord server whenever someone publishes something.

As for joining one, Discord has mainly been for enjoyment for me, joining various communities that I participate in, crypto isn't included in one of them.

17k is still holding pretty strong, we haven't really seen any indication of the market falling through it imo, and we're basically a year away from the expected bull run due to halving most are waiting. I mean if you look at it right now the market is still holding pretty strong at 19k, 20k levels for almost 3 months now. If nothing big happens I think it's safe to assume that it wouldn't go past below 17k anymore, but if something big happens then going to $13k levels wouldn't be that odd.

If by "new people" you mean new investors then yes, bear markets would generally be more helpful since if we consider how Bitcoin has behaved in the long term, then times like these would be the perfect moments for them to enter the market and start hodling. If the bull market though, then I would suggest to only invest a part, or not at all since you might just get swept by the hype (which is what happens most of the time to newbie investors).
Nothing we can do about that, most people know or consider Bitcoin as an investment after all. Wouldn't blame them all, I started Bitcoin taking it as an investment opportunity as well anyway.

Not really imo. Crypto in the first place is simply a medium, I don't think it's volatility would be a huge thing for casinos since they still receive and reward strictly the same percent every time a player gambles (unless they reward the winners later, which doesn't happen afaik). I just think it's a matter of testing out the casino/campaign and looking at the results that it brings for that short amount of time.

Some of the old campaigns last long because they've either decided it was worth it for the long run, or with that short-term test they did decide that it would be worth the money and effort to continue doing it imo.
 I'd think it's dependent on the casino themselves, so it's different from each casino? A case-by-case basis so to speak. It also depends if they pay depending on rank, on number of posts, as well as the number of members they're willing to accept.

My deepest Condolences to those who were lost. I tried looking up more info from this after reading this post, it seems like the majority of the victims were due to the unrest that the release of tear gas did, leading to a stampede happening, as well as a lot of people getting deprived of oxygen, getting trampled later on. The death toll count has also gone past 160 people from what I gathered, and it seems like it still might increase. 

I wouldn't really consider it to be Indonesian violence though afaik they're well known to be rather violent when it comes to football. To what I know it looked more like fans were questioning the team as to why they lost, but since a LOT of people went out to the field I guess it looked like something "was" about to happen. And even if it was imo the police should have first prioritized the safety of the team instead of going, well, what they did.

It should be...? It being divisible by 9 doesn't really negate the fact that it was randomly chosen from a string of numbers. The chances would've been the same as any other combination, it's not like the chances for getting the 2nd number adjusts based on the 1st number you chose, they're all the same for each pick. Honestly, if it was rigged, they would've 100% avoided coincidences like these, since as you've shown yourself, can be rather suspicious.

I think some sleight of hand and camera angles/movement would be enough to rig it? I reckon there'd be some way through those tricks. Not saying that they indeed do it though.

Seems like it's "meant" to incorporate technologies such as decentralization, blockchain, and a bunch of other stuff. Right now there really isn't any core concept or product I'd consider that can prove web 3 is actually a thing other than a market buzzword big corporates made, so I honestly wouldn't worry about it. And as we've seen, most of the so-called "decentralized" apps out there aren't exactly decentralized, which goes to show how the idea of a decentralized web is still rather far (or maybe impossible) from being implemented.

Thing is gambling isn't the only thing I have in terms of having fun or just chilling. Heck I've actually lowered the amount of times I've gambled recently since other stuff has been taking up a huge part of my time. I don't think it would affect me that much, it might be similar to me finishing a long game after so long and having that temporary emptiness of not being able to play it again kind of thing.

Not that it matters though, A lot of countries have gambling banned but it still thrives off in the underground market, so banned or not, gambling will always exist. It just culls the casinos that are open to the public but they can simply swap to going hidden instead.

This... is not a gambling game afaik? It's a really old game though, afaik I last played it around 2012..? Not really sure but it's really old. I don't think you'd find similar types of games in casinos, they're more skill-based rather than luck-based (which casinos thrive off), hardly doubt casinos would ever implement such types fo games, ever. If you really want to play it I think steam has it released? (Latest edition of the game afaik), no gambling involved but if it's just for fun (which is what you should do), then that should work imo.

If it's "gifted" then wouldn't the one who gifted it away be the one to redeem it or something? In the first place, I don't think the lottery would acknowledge a minor for winning the lottery with a gifted ticket since they're, well, a minor. The one who gifted the ticket might even get jailed if they discovered the fact, so I'd reckon any of the adults around the minor would probably help (though it'd probably be laxer than casinos in general).

Not from experience, but afaik casinos tend to ask for ID's if they "think" you're underage. They won't need to if you're obviously middle-aged but if you're kind of a baby face or at the border of age 21, then you have to present it if they see you.

I'd think it's normal, but that's on the occasion where you did your own DYOR. It's a nice startup for look for investment locations though if you're lost. As for projects, well old projects that don't see any improvement are bound to lose their place and get replaced with new blood., especially in the case of crypto where a lot of projects come and go every year. And I'd reckon to compare the most similar scenario for Luna was that big altcoin scam that took years to build up before the owner just poofed out called OneCoin I think? So yes, it's not really a "failure" per se, but you'd see coins like Luna come and go as well.

I don't think businesses in casino are the best form of investment you'd want in times like this. It might even be better to invest in online casinos instead of land-based casinos since online casinos have better opportunities imo for expansion and imo has better chances of lasting longer. And on another note, there'd probably be better businesses to invest in that provide better returns than casinos themselves, not to mention that due to the recent pandemic, casinos have been in overall at the negative.

Seems like even the bounty project in the forum has been stopped? Didn't see any explanation but the thread title got changed to "DISCONNECT YOUR WALLETS SCAM PROJECT!!" so I'm assuming there's really a problem with the wallet connection thing that they can take advantage of, not that I'm aware of the hows. And even if they weren't, I'd still stay away from it for now, any projects that have the word scam surrounding them always have some form of reason for happening.

It's going to be the same as September or a short pump in the first half a month before it dumps back down towards that steady $20k development. I'm more for the latter I guess, I'd prefer dumps for lower entry costs but going even below would probably be not good for my heart (even if I only DCA). Any ATH news is basically dreaming since we're still quite far off from the next halving, heck an increase to $30k isn't even foreseeable so far imo. Even in the scenario where it temporarily goes back up, I'd reckon we'd still be moving downward immediately later on to balance it out as a steady line.

Whenever I find altcoins, I usually go for ETH, BNB, Cardano, and some other top 10 coins. You can also specifically find some project-specific coins but that would obviously be up to you doing your own study and look-ups. I'd actually avoid metaverse, for now, they don't look like they're bringing anything up after all the hype when it first popped up, same with p2e coins though i think some are still developing themselves, albeit you can't really earn much from it compared to back then.

If you really want some safe picks then most would suggest top 10 coins (except stablecoins).
