Sure we don't know what they're thinking but we can have an unreliable deduction that most of them are probably going to be doing something shady so they don't like the idea that they have to give away their information, it doesn't make sense to be anonymous on the Internet anymore because I am sure that when you're connected to the Internet, your government probably already knows about you especially if you already have the social security or a registered voter or have a driver's license. Only way that someone can truly be anonymous if you go off the grid.
Reputable casinos aren't immune to this problem because there's a possibility that an employee will do the leak without the company's knowledge or there's a weak link employee that the hackers that want your data will exploit, it's easy to send someone an email that contains a malware to hijack the computer especially if you know how to social engineer efficiently.

I said the exact same thing about the reestablishment of trust, it's never the same even if you try your best to prove you've changed. I didn't know about this 1xbit physical casinos, now I am intrigued because that's a different animal to tame and they will never be able to do the thing that they've done during their peak as an online casino, it's going to be different because authorities can really step in when the allegations of scams are floating around their casinos which is definitely not going to be good for them, their past reputation will definitely be forgotten especially if their plan of building physical casinos are going to be a success. This is going to be a clean slate for them no matter what happens to the casino since I am sure that not all of their patrons are going to be checking out their online casino or even know about their issue here.

I don't know if this is true but most websites don't really have any controls on what ads are going to show up in their websites and the ad space that they've allocated and with the persistent marketing tactic of 1xbit and not relenting from all the people that they've stolen from, they're still existing as a supposed legitimate gambling site, it seems to be that they've got a huge backing or funding to be able to do all of that marketing. Regarding recognition, unless they're frequenting this forum during the times when 1xbit was actively promoting their scam website, I doubt that a lot of people are going to recognize them now, they've quitely faded into our memory for a while now.
The brand of being a scam website will never go away, it's never going anywhere so in my opinion, they're going to be having a hard time atoning and trying to prove themselves to the community, I believe in redemption so I hope that that's the path that 1xbit will take on, hopefully many of us will be proven wrong that they're just good for it on the early stages and won't commit until forgiven. Man, it's hard to run a gambling website that was supposed to be dead with all the scam allegations and accusations that turned out to be true.

That's not a productive way to be a communicative person, what you need to do is to be smart about who you are planning to share this kind of information, I mean how can you exactly share information about bitcoin to other people if you aren't sharing some stuff about your bitcoin journey, it's not inspiring or even engaging to have someone share you some information but they're so secretive about their own or even dismissive when you ask them right? The take here is that the paranoid approach isn't the best option because it's bad for both parties, the best thing to do is to be able to know who you will share the information and have the instinct to know if someone is having malicious intentions against you, maybe not sharing the actual amount but I think that part should always be private.

From what I can understand from this is that altcoin can't recover at all whenever the bear season for crypto arrives and that bitcoin's the only one that can recover. The part about most altcoins being only created to do a pump and dump scheme is both a curse and a blessing because as you've said you can make profits out of it if you know how to get into them at such an early stage that you can buy at their so-called Genesis and then wait a bit for them to go high but the problem with this is that not all altcoins are like these but then again this is what makes altcoin still in existence. I wouldn't say that they're equally profitable because you're more likely to lose money when you invest in altcoins hoping to hit the one that's going to pump and then dump.

Can't really blame them because the mainstream media made the news of bitcoin's growth as sensational as possible so they can get more views no matter how inaccurate their reports will be, after all it's the sensational and controversial news that really sells right? I guess the only way that we can solve this kind of thing from happening is if we are to educate people too, make it known that you mess around with bitcoin and that you've made profit out of it, there you can see eager people wanting to learn more and instead of blindly learning bitcoin from the mainstream media, you being their other source of information makes it so that they can evaluate if they want to get into bitcoin or not, less chances for people being miserable because they've heard wrong when they've invested in bitcoin.

Dude it's the 21st century so I don't think that your stereotyping of women is absolutely true, I can give you a leeway and say that it's still true to some degree but to say that it's what they're interested and saying that it's all they are is kind of ignorant but it's not your fault, you just don't know better. Women can be what they want to be, sure a lot of the male dominated fields are still close to 90% male but that doesn't mean that there's no women out there that's in those field especially with technology which was highly male dominated.

A lot of influential women are big contributors to technology, I mean the code to run the Apollo 11 Moon Mission was written by a woman (I forgot her name, I feel bad as I am making a point), Marie Curie for her discovery of radioactive elements, there's probably more out there so don't say that women are less interested in technology, it probably has to do with nurturing and the nature where the child grows. Maybe because we see that there's less women in crypto is probably because we only interact with other men most of the time so we have a hard time looking at the big picture that there's women that's interested in bitcoin.

How are you so sure that every kid knows about bitcoin? There's like a lot of kids out there and I think that the kids that know about it are a special case because that's not really a topic that a kid will talk about when they are playing with their friends or are reading their books. I don't know about your claim OP, bitcoin isn't that widespread on children's talking and playing circle so I don't know how reliable that claim is.
Most of the time, these users that post this don't do the due diligence of searching for similar topics because they want to contribute something even though they know that the answer is already obvious and they want the engagement and there's the chance that they can get a merit for the same topic. I don't think that's going to happen, a lot of spammers are on the forum so I don't know how the management in the forum would be able to deal. Also, you should create this concern in Meta board, you can probably get more diverse insight there compared here where most replies only answers what the OP has posted.

We have to understood too that there's people out there that are below the poverty line or even those that are living from paycheck to paycheck, investing in anything is the least of their priorities because most of these people that I've generalized are probably living in survival mode meaning that they can't afford to wait for anything long-term even if the benefits far outweigh all the disadvantages out there, yes bitcoin is a hedge but are those people able to play the waiting game? I don't think so. But for those that are able to do it, just do what the others are recommending like DCA, if it works for you then continue doing but if it's not then you can check out other methods if there are any.

Just let these people enjoy the stuff that they're excited about, these people that are following the hype are a helpful addition to the chances of bitcoin going up even further. Sure ETF isn't the lynchpin to the next bullrun as many people thought it to be but that's beside the point, the possibility of money flowing into the market when it gets approved is still a big help into making bitcoin a powerhouse again in the investment circles, making it more valuable than any other stocks out there. Regarding the setting money aside, I think that it's the other way around, you should set aside money for your investment in bitcoin, you should learn your priorities so you won't be confused and having your priorities in order will help you with things not coming back to bite you in the ass, always prioritize the real world before investments, if you're not the son of a billionaire then that what I have said about priorities should be your thing.

There shouldn't be any limit, what you should be asking is how much you should allocate each month for your monthly bitcoin purchase because you have to be extra careful with how you spend your money on a monthly basis since you're saying you are poor. If you're like me who earns at below minimum I would say that it's probably around 5% to 10% of youf monthly salary should be allocated to your bitcoin purchase but the higher end which is 10% should be done only when you're smart at how you spend your money and you don't spend it on useless stuff. You have to make sure that you are going to not starve or be late on your bills when you do this kind of allocation to sustain your bitcoin hodling, do the necessary stuff first before anything.

Not familiar with LN but if I can learn the basics and I've heard good things about LN so I am weighing my options about being paid in LTC or going with the LN option.

Can I delay my response to this boss @Little Mouse? Received the payment for Week#10 thank you.

Here's my LTC address Sir @Little Mouse: ltc1qv3xc5gk455cext6834n76k65fc5hrj40q0c6cv

Congratulations on the win, that's a cause for celebration.

As much as I dread that sentence, I have to agree with the effectiveness of streamers and influencers in attracting players to the platform that they're supporting or promoting. That much power and influence over their audiences is why I think a lot of people especially children want to start a career as a streamer which is admirable but a scary dream because you can fail but I digress, this case of OP winning an amount isn't and shouldn't be a start for you to gamble too, this is an isolated incident and you might not be able to replicate OP's success so gamble responsibly.

I'm not familiar with hosting in FIFA so is this the first time that the continent Americas is going to be the host for the 2026 World Cup? Isn't only one country allowed so how come this one is special that they have 3 countries to host one event. I don't know if this match is going to be fun but I am sure that the events that's going to be hosted in this World Cup is going to be spectacular. What is this Hell group that you're talking about? Is it like some kind of group seed where it contains all the favorites and strongest teams? I feel weirded out that US is going to be a host because football isn't really a big deal there so I don't know how to feel about that besides being happy because we can see Americans trying something new and introducing football to the people of US who always call the sport a soccer.

Isn't it weird that they care too much about anonymity though? I get it you're on the Internet but the government and your ISP already knows who you are so how are we going to be that paranoid about our anonymity when there's already people that knows us and there's no person here that's totally off the grid so I don't see why worry about anonymity. I think that the only reason why people want no KYC casinos is because they don't trust anyone and a lot of them are probably money launderers or at least mules of money launderers so they want less flak on them as much as possible. You can't really blame the people who advocate for no KYC casinos as there are scum casinos that will sell your data to a third party which are often malicious in nature.

There are games that require skills besides sports betting, poker and blackjack is a good example of games that requires some skill although the skill you need in blackjack might get you banned in certain casinos but poker, you do need skills on that one because you can't be telling what you have with your facial expressions and you should have the skills to bait someone into sweetening the pot when you're winning and also the ability to observe the tell of your opponents helps too and is a skill so I disagree with you that it's only in sports betting that you need any skill, shouldn't it be the reverse because when you're betting you just need the analysis of the game, you rely on the skill of the players so technically it's not a skill based gambling because it's not your skill that decides who's going to win. Believe what you want to believe, luck for me is just the easy explanation of the chaotic nature of probability and chances.

With all the money and crypto I've lost in gambling, I would probably think about myself first if I ever win a jackpot or large amounts of money or crypto in my gambling, that's how most lottery winners lose their money, they announce it to the world and then think of giving back to the community and then when the hype around them is over, there's nothing more for them to give to themselves. From that stories, I think that I will probably make sure that I have secured my future and my family's future with the winnings before giving back anything, let's not pretend that that's not going to be what we're going to do when we win big in gambling.

You're better off giving the money yourself to those who are in need, going to charities are going to make it more complicated and there's a lot of charities out there that don't really help what they've promised to help. Obviously you're not going to give bacj to the community if your wins aren't in the millions, that kind of money should be used to spend on your needs if not having a security for your finances. Be careful when you win lottery, you're going to see a lot of friends pretending to be your friend, you don't want to be a part of the long list of lottery winners that were too kind and too stupid to spend their wins that they've lost all of their wins in a matter of days, months or years.

That's not really true, what we really are is already in the open, it's just that it's not that obvious for some people unless they really look at you and observe your behavior. No such need for revelation because there's nothing that money reveals when it comes to a person, the real saying should be "Money magnifies who you really are". The image below is where I got my argument that "Money reveal people" isn't the right phrase or saying.

Lost all of the money I've planned to spend on gambling in one game of dice because I was frustrated and the other opponents are taunting me and are being annoying so I just dump all of the money in one go and then it's gone, just like that. That moment was so heartbreaking to me at that time because I was trying to learn how to discipline myself in terms of being stoic and not giving in to outside pressure and so I promised myself (again) to never do that kind of shit again.

For me, as my story have included are the factors of emotions and the people that's around you, emotion is going to be a big problem especially if you are easily influenced by it and so your action suffers like what happened to me, I let the instigation and annoyance to drive me to go all in in just one game. The other factor which is peer pressure or just the influence of people around you is a big problem because you're under the impression that you need to impress them and that if there's a challenge being issued, you have to save face so the people around you don't see you as a sissy or a coward.

So basically you're doing loansharking which is pretty illegal because lending and lending companies shouldn't be inside casinos or gambling houses right? To me, what you're doing OP isn't investment but more like opportunism or exploitation, that's how it looks to me though because you approach those that are losing their money already and in a way enable them to gamble more using your own money which will only make things worse for them and you know it and you still do it because it's easy money although the pays take a long time.
It is a terrible idea, and as you've already said, OP is doing what loansharks do and I am really amazed at the gall of OP to say this online, is OP lacking self-awareness or something?
OP knows they'll pay the loan, I am sure that OP is a loanshark with how OP is able to explain the lending service that OP offers, it's not and investment or a gamble because OP will be able to get the loan back, by hook or by crook. Also, I don't think believe it's not going to work because OP wouldn't share this if it's not working.
