1781  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is ARB a rising star ? on: April 03, 2023, 01:44:46 PM
Anything which is new could be a great investment but to know whether it would be good for a long run, is something we could be never certain of especially in this industry. There's that hype but most newly released are falling afterwards unless they are tokens tagged with huge names in this undustry such as BCH to name one.
I have noticed that ARB has been newly listed on several exchanges in the past few days. This coin is a very good quality coin and the trading volume is very high in the market right now. I bought this coin and made some profit. As its price continues to rise, it is likely to exceed $2 within a few months.So I think this coin will reach a great stage in future. So it seems worth the investment and it has gained recognition as a good platform nowadays.
Promising indeed but all tokens are prone to pull backs especially if the market tells coins to do so. Problem is, once a decline occur, given that we were somehow bullish for the recent months, would it be able to sustain the market downfall? It would only do so once its community become established by investors and right now most are taking profit from its early release, so yes, would be hard to tell.
1782  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Which of your friends and relatives deals with bitcoin? on: April 02, 2023, 11:28:17 PM
Some of my friends are investors of cryptocurrency but I never wanted to encourage those who are not especially my relatives. Reason? exposing them to risk. Ofcourse they should have the initiative to do so, but what I am worried about is to be blamed afterwards especially if things won't work out as they have expected. The market itself is unpredictable and prices could fall down in an instant.  Given that you are a relative to them, you'd be somehow responsible of their action especially if you're the one who somewhat encouraged them. So everytime some of them are asking I either not encourage them or change the topic for them to seek curiousity for themselves than to be exposed because of my presence.
1783  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What do you Think might aid the global adoption of Bitcoin? on: April 02, 2023, 05:41:02 PM
Regulation, I think. Some would say it would be downfall of fiat but if we would be realistic, downfall of fiat means downfall of economies; cryptocurrencies would as well be burried with it. Regulation on the other hand would be an additonal contribution to the economy by means of taxes, and this is the only way governments would accept this blockchain. Governments have their own reason whether it is risk, anonymity or other possible cause of why countries are still avoidant with cryptocurrencies. Bottomline is, for majority of countries to adopt with this technology, they'd be needing to treat it like fiat, as what is typical. This would be unfortunate given that crypto has its nature but things won't work as smooth as butter no matter how we want it to be.
1784  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: We are about to enter altcoin season, what do you think? on: April 02, 2023, 05:30:11 PM
If we would base on the current market behavior, I do think we are more of altcoin dominance over Bitcoin. Green marks are all over the market, launchpads, new projects and such which shows that this is a good period for altcoins not only with Bitcoin. In comparison, altcoins are showing more than with Bitcoin. But ofcourse, we should still regard with tendencies or possibilities that a correction may still occur. FUD or not, atleast it would be better to safeguard ourselves with risk management than to be too carried away by what we are seeing. Anything could happen in an instant,this is cryptocurrency we are talking about; a very volatile asset which is still facing issues with regards to adoption. Better safe than sorry, always.
1785  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do you withdraw bitcoin this week? on: April 02, 2023, 03:32:25 PM
Somehow, we are having quite of a good month and that is I guess an enough reason for people to have high hopes for this new month. Many people would continue holding especially those who are in the profit phase already. As the market price continues to go up, the more people would continue holding or even adding up to their capital because it would mean bigger profit for them. Problem that may arise are people forgetting how the market price behaves, which is in an unpredictable manner. The market prices could fall in an instant and without a warning simply because there are no reason supporting its resistance to be as high as it is at the present. Once whales chooses to take profit already, which has a tendency becaude the anticipated bullrun is for next year, many people who invested halfway of the incline, could be in huge loss. So atleast manage the risk of the amount you are engaging to this blockchain.
1786  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin can do 30k$ this month? on: April 02, 2023, 03:00:09 PM
If the market would allow, then $30k is possible and is already around the corner. The average market value at the start of april is already at $28k and is too close for such goal. Once it reaches $30k we may expect for a rally towarda $32k as its new resistance. But there are only speculations; no one really knows what could happen in a blink of an eye just like the sudden dump reaching $26k before the month of march ended. Problem I am seeing which slows down the uprise movement is the lack of reason to do so. Whale or big investors' manipulation of the market is more observable.
After march the price failed to reach $30k then i believe a price of $30k will happen in april now, a strong indication is that many influencers are suggesting to buy because a bull run is imminent,  maybe it is their opinion but if there is much to suggest it usually will be.

Who are those influencers? What did they say, and what evidence do they have that there will be an upcoming bull run? I'm not saying bitcoin won't cross $30k or see any upside, but when investing, you need to believe in yourself rather than what social media celebrities are speaking nonsense about. They like you and me, are making predictions and expectations without any evidence to back up those claims.
In addition to expecting bitcoin to continue to rise, you should do your own analysis and have a backup plan if bitcoin does not increase but plunges.
Everyone are just making a speculation, meaning, guess, of what could happen but no one would be able to actually tell the exact future for this industry in general. Every opinion is valid, and it is the investor who would suffer in the first place if he would be too dragged by mere expectations.
1787  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin usage in crime activity. on: April 02, 2023, 02:25:40 PM
Has been existing eversince. This technology promotes anonymity with transactions and that also covers illegal ones. What can we do about it? None. Those transactions are simply payments and it is the wrongdoings which should be condemned and not the mode of payment.  Even with fiat currencies, tracing only is being used to track accounts involved but not certain with the one who did a crime. And it is not this technology's fault if it would be involved on such things because no matter what currency is being used, the purpose of crimes are solely with doers' intentions.

Would it be the reason to stop adoption of this technology? Has low chances that it is. It would be more acceptible to know that countries are afraid because of the risk involved, but with crimes? that's too far from a currency's purpose and function.
1788  Economy / Economics / Re: Money as a store of value... on: April 01, 2023, 08:01:40 PM
in the long run Money is by no means a store of value that can keep its value the same year after year. because the value of the currency actually continues to experience deflation from year to year. whereas Gold might be more suitable to be used as a store of value for our assets so that it is not too affected by inflation. even though gold also has fluctuations but with a range of price changes that are not far away. and the trigger is also due to changes in currency values ​​that are affected by inflation or something like that. so actually the price of gold is not too moving. but the money keeps moving. correct me if wrong.
In addition to gold, real estate is also a very good store of value and I think it is safer than gold. But the downside of these two assets is that they are quite bulky, it will be difficult to move as well as if there is a war, the real estate will depreciate. Although bitcoin is volatile, we can consider it as a store of wealth because of its advantages.
Assets are not requiring in any form, size and weight as long as it will give you hopes or potential that its market price will grow in the long run and in order to make money for your needs of ourse. Being a store of value should promote and endorse all of the things we see regarding demons for us to make use of it as an advantage and to strategize things. A war would be different because no matter what size your asset is, you'd be having a hard time focusing on things which are most imporatnt for one's career. Banks and money promotes security more than others but not absolute.During a war, no currency will be monitored because it would be a survival of the fittest.
1789  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Volatility on: April 01, 2023, 07:54:39 PM
Bitcoin's volatility is one of its features that turns off a lot of people. When someone expresses interest in investing, the majority of financial counselors advise them to avoid doing this. Because it is one of the most volatile assets ever, I believe that is why the adage "invest only what you can afford to lose" exists.

My query is: How will Bitcoin's volatility diminish over time, or what is the single biggest element that could result in a reduction in Bitcoin's volatility?
In any form of investment, risk would be present. And to most of the assets, expect volatility in the market price simply because the value depends on demand from the majority and demand on the other hand is changing because of several factors. Many people are indeed being scared or worried of engaging towarda this technology for the same concern but for sure many people stayed because of market price volatility. Investors have taken advantage of these changes because it simply generates profit faster than with other kinds of investment. Problem is people seek for what's easily earned which is why they do complain to such characteristic of this technology. Unfortunately, we cannot do something about it and no one's required to do it as well.
1790  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: What makes Binance stay strong despite all FUD ? on: April 01, 2023, 06:05:33 PM
Their service I guess. FUDs are simply accusations thrown at a particular thing but it won't mean any certainty. Binance is simply being careful of their service. Think of how an exchanger collaped and they remained with the same d
reputation in this industry. For sure many people in this industry, in particular with investors know how FUDs should be absorbed and taken to benefit from and to not fall from it. I can celarly remember how many people panicked with what happened forming generalization out of this industry or technology. Binance simply remained firm to show how they return the trust from their users. This is why it is not surprising on my end to know Binance is still in the right place at the present.
1791  Economy / Economics / Re: Should you save, when you are wealthy? on: April 01, 2023, 05:29:09 PM
Yes, being wealthy won't excuse you to save. First thing is to know its importance; being rich or wealthy at the present won't automatically mean that you'd be rich for the rest of your life. It would always be better to be preventive than to be problematic afterwards for the cure of a certain problem and in this instance is wealth. No one knows what could happen tomorrow; things are simply having no pattern, that's just how life works. Therefore, being prepared would make you safe from regrets. Saving therefore would prolong your iverall sustainance of your lifestyle and will make you ready for unexpected expenses in the future. But if you are too confident of your wealth, there is no law requiring you to save in the first place; it takes one's initiative.
1792  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Starting my master's degree in bitcoin on: April 01, 2023, 04:24:26 PM
Why do you need a Master degree in Bitcoin. With its open-source you can learn it and don't need to have a Master degree about it.

I don't know Bitcoin Core developers have their Master degrees to code Bitcoin Core softwares.

If you want to look for Master courses, find them from [LIST] Institutions offering blockchain courses and programs in the world. The list is not for Master degree courses but likely you will find them from those universities.

Free courses from Learmeabitcoin
Also, there's no such thing professional in this industry; we are all students who keeps on learning as this technology develops. I've heard of cryptocurrencies being a course, and a subject and some people think that it is even a good profession. My personal question is why? Given how risky this industry is, in comparison with other investments such as properties and stock market. Even those who are in this industry for almost a decade are still seeking for new knowledge about this industry. Maybe, people are way too amazed by the potential of this blockchain in particular with profit potential, but things just work on a different way for this industry; no particular pattern. Having a master's degree means you have a mastery of something right? Are there anyone in this industry whose in such level?
1793  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Any casino site offer Ludo game? on: April 01, 2023, 03:27:55 PM
I have never found Ludo in a crypto casino but I don't know if Ludo games are available in fiat casinos or local casinos. But I've seen it on my friend's phone game and it's just a normal game with nothing to do with gambling. So you can play Ludo as usual without having to spend money. And if you want to play gambling, you better look for other popular gambling games. We want to see how our favorite game can be included in the gambling, but it depends on the casino because the casino will see how popular the game is.
It is a boardgame if I'm not mistaken but any game in the first place could be a gambling game as long as a bet is involved. It is just not a usual gambling game but that doesn't mean that it has no linkage with this industry. It just happened that traditional gambling games are more being accommodated in this industry and are being created with different versions. As we can observe, gambling sites are trying to offer new gambling games to their players simply because of the idea that boredom could take place if same thing will be played for a long period of time.

So to answer the question of OP, I am not aware that a gambling site offers such gambling game. I do view it as something alike with snakes and ladder if you guys are familiar. More of a leisure activity to just kill time. And since it is not as popular as the traditional ones, there should be second thought for gambling platforms to offer such game, because it could be a waste on their end. What's more likely to happen is for them to still offer what is being demanded by majority of players.
1794  Economy / Digital goods / Re: Selling my crypto gambling casino with sports betting on: March 31, 2023, 10:08:05 PM
Quite off topic but I think it would be hard to sell an existing cryptogambling site or even structured already. Investors would prefer starting it from the roots in such way, the project would be more efficient and they will already see problems before the actual release than them troubleshooting afterwards when they bought a finished platform. But it would be worth trying to sell especially since Op have mentioned problems or cause of its cancellation. With that, I suggest putting or attachment of the platform itself or its concept which would give possible investors or buyers the idea already. In most instances, they'd be too lazy to check it one by one.
1795  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Has anyone here tried Gambling Arbitrage? on: March 31, 2023, 09:43:33 PM
Have been asked before if I'm not mistaken.I personally did not experience arbitrage betting but have a friend who already did. He even tried to encourage me at first but eventually he stopped it . According to him, it would be indeed profitable especially if you would be able to put the right margin between your bets on different platforms. Given that you'd bet on all possible outcomes, in such way it would be too costy, and for me that is an enough risk to avoid.Once you made the wrong calculation of odds, expect huge loss on your end. I'd prefer just playing it on the usual to avoid adding risks of losing. I believe this won't be hundred percent effective even if it is called "surebets", because if it really is, then many gamblers should be rich by now.
1796  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Your local gambling game that you didn’t see in the crypto casino on: March 31, 2023, 04:26:26 PM
Do you know any local gambling games in your country that crypto casino doesn’t offer until now?

In our country, We have a lot of local gambling games that being offered by our local online casino but I still didn’t see in any crypto casino available here. I made the list below on our local gambling games that I want to be added by crypto casino.

Color game
It is a "Gamble/Parlor" Game  Seen in the Philippines mostly during "Fiesta" and Christmas Seasons on late 80's and 90's, as of now Some Towns and local Barangays in Provinces are still allowing this type of game (together with BINGO Games, "ROLETA", etc. ) only during Fiesta and NO MINORs are allowed to bet.

The mechanics is simple, You just need to choose a Color to bet among six (6) Colors, and you or the operator must pull  a String or manually pull-up a lever to release the Multi-colored wooden Blocks/Dices. The Color on  the top of the (3) "rolled" wooden blocks/Dices are the winning colors.

Tong-its
Tong-its is played using the standard Anglo-American pattern 52-card deck. Unlike many Rummy variations, Tong-its does not make use of the Jokers sometimes available.

Tong-its is exclusively a three-player game, something which makes it unique among the Rummy-family. The odd number of Players, as well as the inability to add or subtract Players from the game, makes for an interesting deal as well. This short tutorial will explain the basic concepts of the game.

Pusoy Way & Pusoy Dos

This game is like poker in terms of card combination hierarchy it just vary on the way cards being played. You can read full mechanics on this blog https://www.pinoygame.net/news/detail/18/Pusoy-Pinoy-How-to-play.html


Lucky 9

A card game that same mechanics with Baccarat. It just played like Blackjack which player can have multiple seat and has the capability to hit or stand. This gives the freedom for players to play for there own decision unlike Baccarat that you are just choosing side.

You can share your own game below. Just make sure that it’s a GAMBLING GAME. Post the brief mechanics and add reference for the full description of the game.

I live in the same country. Your list is indeed true but to categorize it; these gambling games are simply street based gambling games. These are basically gambling games which are more accessible with convenience to players wherein a deck of card can generate mutiple betting games. But to add, spider betting game and other animal betting games.Others are coin toss and other probability gambling games. There's more for sure including betting agreements on a particular concern such as number of this and that. This simply implies that gambling industry is far from what most of us know. There are many betting games which could generate profit. Any thing wherein contrary would be the bottomline as long as the contrary sides are okay with the long end growth and we just cannot so something about it.
1797  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Neymar Loses €1M in Casino in Just an Hour on: March 31, 2023, 03:57:01 PM
Not surprising especially for someone who bets that much. For sure there are big players out there who feel the same thing whenever they are losing; the idea that they can get it back again thru playing. I'd agree with fuel to addiction or something which would drive a plaer into addiction towarda gambling. Once the value of money declined on a player's point of view, that is where problem may arise. They might be too dependent with the activity because they are disregarding the risk of losing money. At their start, it would be sustainable but imagine losing continuously, how come you would be sustain your bets in a long run?
Neymar can never find this a loss because if you consider the amount the player earns per week you will discover it's something he can recover without much disturbance, there's an extent one can have money reach and care less about loosing it or have fear for missing out , so they take time to engage on several attempts on things or dealings that makes them squandered the money since they have it enough, but they will bever think about helping the needy or giving back to the society they belong to.
It is not the amount he earns because that thing won't be constant. Think of big individuals ending up broke because of gambling. Take note that most of them has multiple businesses. The point here is that; as long as the player is confident that losses would be eventually returned on their pockets, they will continue and will be more reckless of their money.
1798  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is Online casino always take risks? on: March 31, 2023, 02:56:02 PM
Not only online casinos but gambling in general, risk is present. There's no certainty with winning which makes it a risky investment. Both online and land based casino has risk. Landbased casinos would expose a gambler to trouble, vices in particular with second hand smoke. While in online gambling, players are prone to hacking and non paying gambling sites. But both would be risky of losing for sure because that is a part of gambling or what makes gambling, "gambling".

Casino owners most probably have a budget to pay for the marketing out of their pocket. It seems necessary to market the casino. I just don't know how they make the deal with the influencer. If the casino doesn't want to risks then they must have something like a reward for achieving something. Could it be how much the influencers bring to the casino since the start of his promotion?


For sure they have, and they should. Given how many gambling platforms are there, existing. Therefore a new platform should have something to market themselves to potential players in order to attract future investors or players which would give life to the site itself.
1799  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How do we build a strong community of supporters for crypto projects ? on: March 30, 2023, 11:26:09 PM
Campaigns and other form of advertisments; most often social mdeia platforms. This is for the project to be known by more people both non-crypto and crypto investors. If you'd solely depend with crypto-investors, the possible growth would be limited into such population. Unlike with bigger scope wherein including non-crypto investors will create a bigger margin for your project's demand. If the project itself has potential then it would be worth trying to introduce it to a larger population.
Building a solid community is easy, easy, difficult. The most important trust, we can attract and build community by giving them gifts for example. But now there are many people who just want the prize without making a big contribution to the project, that is the work where the project must survive in the midst of such a process. Providing a clear roadmap is also one of the keys to the success of a project. And also always provide updated developments so that investors see that the project is a project that is managed seriously and by professional people. The peak is when the project has gained trust, it will not be difficult to attract many investors.
Indeed, maintaining the popularity is a hard thing to do. Especially if you have long term vision while your investors are only for short term. Problem is we cannot control the demand from investors during the process. Demand will only be established once the project is out in the public and still showing promising potential.
1800  Economy / Economics / Re: Bitcoin Investment: Good Debts vs Bad Debts on: March 30, 2023, 11:04:07 PM
On my viewpoint, there's no good debt. Indeed loans could be used to start your own business; process is allowing your business to pay your loan until the property itself remains as your profit. Problem is looking for that business which would generate assured profit or returns. Apartments? Properties? Could possibly be, but think of the rate of return; it would be long for such properties because rent is on a monthly basis. It is easy to idealize the process but on the actual it is not. You have to minimize the risk. And if you cannot sustain what you are using your loan with, you'd be at risk. I acknlowdge this process of using loan to earn profit but I myself is fully aware that it would be too risky and I might end up being in bigger dept.

Right now, I prefer using my own money to atleast give me an allowance from the risk. In such way, it would prolong my time getting back with the amount I would be investing into something.
