OP, have you heard anything about "Quality Over Quantity? How do you say that shitposters make this forum more active and popular? Imagine, when I see a good, interesting topic where would love to see opinions from others, boom, there are thousands of shitposts in such topics and 1-2 good post gets lost. Personally, I prefer to see only these 1-2 good post and don't have to rummage through all of them.

Bounty hunters are like an asthma, it's hard to see good posts (breath) but once you delete (use inhaler), forum gets cleaner and cleaner (relaxing the muscles of the airways into the lungs and you breath easily).

Most of the slots use Random Number Generator (RNG) where on each bet your luck is started from 0 that means each bet doesn't increase your chances, instead every bet carries the same lack as old ones. But it will be interesting to see any review in details about slots that use provably fair system. The only slot with PF system that I know is Bitsler's Fruitsler. For their fruitsler, they use new version of server seeds and more details are on their website.

House edge of slots are very high in overall and it doesn't worth to gamble with big budget cause you'll end up without your money pretty soon (if profit is what you want from gambling and again, this is very silly). Otherwise, for fun, slots are one of the most amazing, at least personally I find them this way because modern slot games have good graphics, nice and a lot of features while some of them carry good epic songs.

Idk what happens around you but I see a lot of people who share the idea that "Trump is not my president".  It's always easy to blame someone but of course, because of this virus number of unemployment has significantly risen, sadly as it should have been. It's another task whether trump did right actions in correct way and time and etc. Situation was especially worse in America, there are still a lot of people who don't care about corona virus and just want to continue life normally and don't care whether they get affected by this virus or not and I totally understand to them, at some point I was in their queue but things need much more clarification and deep analytics rather than just easily blaming someone.


This crisis isn't a lesson for anyone. Sometimes things happen as someone wants to be. If it's a lesson, then why do we have experts in economics? Then change this title and it will be whole different tasks.

I absolutely agree with you, integration of blockchain technologies will raise trust among people but at the same time government has to educate people around blockchain, what it is, why it's used and why it makes them sure that things will be fair and transparent. Without this kind of education, they can't make people sure in things by just saying that we integrated blockchain technologies.
Very good news, I like when blockchain technologies really rock in things where it's necessary and this one is really the one among other things that includes land title registry and so on.

Freebitco was one of the most famous website in bitcoin's history back in 2016. It was so famous that articles written via banks were suggesting freebitco as a one major way to earn bitcoin. Btw yeah, there was some ads on website but it wasn't much, everything was pretty normal, I would even say that they didn't have much ads and also want to mention that along with adsense (if I remember correctly), you could buy ads on their website via bitcoins and it was cheap.
Freebitco did the right things in last 1-2 years, they understood that faucet business was dying but at the same time they wanted to stay alive and even more on market. They changed their visions, integrated very beneficial things for themselves, had good amount of money and in order to collect more, offered people profit on investments.

Soon we will see sports betting on freebitco, blog and even more ) 

I see a lot of advice where people suggest each other to practice on websites where they can trade with virtual money. To be fair, I am in this list too among them but at the same time no one warns such people that it was it's pros and cons, more likely cons are outsiders while giving advices.

Pros: You trade with virtual money where your actions can't raise/damage your real budget, it looks like you spend money like nothing. This gives us possibility to test our skills and abilities in trading and help us further why we make mistakes and what we need to fix while considering the fact that the reason why I profit/lose is because you lose/profit.

Yeah, it sounds good but sometimes when we move on real life trading, things go wrong. We are always warned to leave our emotions outside while we are trading that includes: Not to panic sell, hold when there are harsh moments, etc. But we forget to mention another main emotion that we face in this situation: We trade with our money where we are responsible to results and these results may have huge impact on our life. Inside, in our subconscious, we worry about the results because we trade with our, real money.

To my mind that's one of the main reason why people usually start well with virtual trading and end up badly in real life trading and somehow this is one of the most skipped problem in overall.

17,18 bitcoin? hah, that's nothing. Back in when binance was hacked, at Least 4,836 BTC was laundered through chipmixer. More than one year has passed since then if I am correct and nothing has happened to chipmixer, so, believe me, this amount is just a drop in the ocean.
Persoanlly I couldn't imagine if any mixer would try to really enter this market seriously but Chipmixer just rocks, they are not only great but greatest in what they do. Will be interesting to see if they were caught soon after using mixing services and which mixer succeed in this situation.

First of all I want to mention that I used to have great knowledge in sports (not recently because don't have any free time for that). Every statistics is very important because you predict the future and you can more accurately predict it when you know the history, that includes: Which team needs win the most, in what conditions are each team? How did transfers affect to each club? Did star players made club better or still can't they rise? What are the scores in recent matches? Is this game important for certain club? Do they need to be more rested for upcoming match? And this goes endlessly.

But overthinking always kills everything so just don't overthink but consider a lot of things.

Bitcoin was leaving the trace from the very begining, blockchain alone is an opened book of transactions but this doesn't mean that bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are getting dangerous. What gives you a reason to say that? If everything you do is 100% fine and legal, then believe me, no one will seek for your transactions and do deep investigation around it, so finally you are still secured and aren't traced. But if you do illegal things, then yeah, bitcoin isn't secure cause as you see lately, a lot of people who used bitcoin for bad purposes were caught and it's not so easy to hide your bitcoins because people already learnt how to trace it.

And KYC, yeah, I don't like it too and still there are some business that offer crypto services without KYC but very limited in number. Governments request them to ask users for their KYC documents but at the same time they can't protect these sensitive information carefully and lose it multiple times (we got hacked and other blablabla).

There is one great lyrics from my favourite song: This is the world you've created, the product of what I've become.
This words truly describes that we created terrible world and how? Let me clarify. Always, there are some people who have ambition to be better and on another level than others. Once this man achieves success and others become his/her slaves, there is someone who tries to overcome from this situation and become free and this kind of person also tries to attract people who may share the same idea but imagine what happens then? There is a one person who tries to get the most from this situation and rise himself/herself in a selfish way while abandon what others were working on and trying to achieve.

Maybe when you read this example, you may think about ancient slave-soldiers but this applies to current reality.

There are some people who own money that would be enough for most part of the society but... People even don't care about that and that's a huge problem. Have you seen very massive protests in the streets around this problem? No...

And Jeff Bezos, he is really mentally ill. He made a lot of money during pandemic and as a bonus, significantly cut affiliate fees for those who are under Amazon Affiliate Program.

Wow, I am very amazed by the actions that were taken by them. They did crazy stuff (in a good way) and somehow, usually there are times when such thing succeed. But in any way that's a very risky move because USD is like a global currency, if anything goes down with it, everyone goes down but at the same time bitcoin is a very risky currency too, it can go down a lot in a matter of seconds and not rise for months but at the same time it can skyrocket. The bogo deal of bitcoin is that it can go doen but can rise without limits.

Sorry, I can't download it because of my IOS, so better to think about developing this app for apple products (oh it costs a lot).
Appreciate the effort that you put into it but the app needs a lot of improvement and first of all, start with UI (What attracts you at first? Appearance).
I had the same idea in past and I think it will be really good to release it, will write about it in some days/weeks. I think community should make such APP but more professional and elegant and these content should be available in different languages. It also mustn't be only information but quizzes, tests and some entertainment.

You could also use bitcoin wiki because content is under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0

Not written in proper English but understood the point of your post.
There was one accident that absolutely suits to your post and 100% answers to your question. User Lone Shark was actively offering landing service on bitcointalk but after some time someone caught him and was permanently banned because of copy/pasting posts but ban was remove by theymos because of his loan service.
If you are asking whether someone may notify/warn you before ban, then - no, it comes as a suprise.

Also if such thing happened in past, it doesn't mean that same may happen in future. Don't go against the rules, if you can't protect them, then why to be there?

You can see his profile here and check threads created by him and one red trust where you'll see things in more details: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=909705

Believe me, there are a lot of services that actively read and analyze feedbacks and try hard to work in it and in this case I mean gambling industry, both, casinos and suppliers (i.e. slot providers, live casino suppliers and so on).
But mostly what makes blackjack.fun highly prominent is that they read every advice that's given here and boom, second day you wake up and what you posted in this thread is already changed/implemented on website.

DarkDays
Withdrawals are instant as far as I remember, withdrew for 2 times and got my bitcoins quickly.
Oh, there isn't any built-in exchange on their website, hope it will be implemented soon.

You had to say: Everything new is well-forgotten old.

At first there was poker.com and now gambling.org ? Hmm, so great domain owners are interested in crypto business but... Btw any proofs that website is yours? I checked it and there isn't bitcoin/crypto mentioned anywhere, also there isn't a list of crypto casinos, except bitstarz.com that's mixed and in overall you include real money casinos.

Logo is okey, not good, not bad, just in the middle. It reminds me pokerstars because of that icon in the middle of word "g".
And do you own gamblersanonymous.org too? Would love to hear from you.

Signature campaigns and marketing alone can't boost number of gamblers/players if they don't like your product. Marketing and in our case signature campaign, helps business owners to reach to potential customers, as much as possible. Design of sig campaign, participants of sig campaign and business model (whether gambling, exchange or something other) affects the number of impressions.

Did 90 from 100 clicked on signature and came into your website? Congrats, along with possible 1-2 misclick, a lot of users were interested. Didn't they registered/visit your website again? Then seems there is something wrong with product or with both, product and what text on signature promises.

There are a lot of details that have huge influence on marketing. You have to analyze each of them and improve your weak points in order to achieve success.

And oh, I already answered that campaigns work and there are great examples, both, past and current.

Usually thread authors (OPs) post images for introduction in ANN threads but of course there are other cases too (for example, promotions, statistics, etc).

When someone quotes the same image, it doesn't increase load time / data usage but seems to be really boring.

NavI_027
Idea behind this procedures is to resize image in order to get smaller image that as a result is smaller in size (MBs/KBs). And then compress after that to get even smaller in size.

LoyceV
Your picture described everything perfectly:
PNG - Portable Network Graphics
JPG  / JPEG - Joint Photographic Experts Group

So, long story short, PNG = higher quality images than JPG but is higher in size too because of this reason.
Advantege of PNG over JPG is that sometimes we need images with transparent background (for example, logos).

Also, I want to mention WEBP since I included it in topic. This new image format was created especially for web. WEBP offers lossless compression of images and higher quality at the same time. Idea behind WEBP was to make load of images faster and efficient.

bob123
Nothing can be compressed without losing quality but this compression allows you to reduce size while making it almost impossible for eye to detect the difference between two.


P.S. There are two benefits of this compression. Less data when using mobile network and less load time of images, as a result faster and better performance on every device. Personally, I prefer to see thread loaded in 3 seconds rather than in 7 seconds.

Hello guys!
As I see, sometimes people post images in threads and sometimes they open threads with a lot of images. As you know, it makes load time a little bit slow because images are high in size. To reduce the load time and make things more comfortable for everyone, I think it will be better if all of us compress images, this will save space and time and isn't hard.

1. For example, let's see the size of this Image 1 - Seems to be 171.8 KB. Normal but how far can we compress it?

2. First of all, compress JPG/PNG images without losing quality by using TinyJPG


As we see, we have 74% reduction in image size without losing quality and got 44.5 KB in size.

3. Can we compress it even further? Yes but for this we need to convert image into webp and compress in this format. You can't upload webp images on imgur, so have to use another image upload website.
For highest compress, we can use compress-or-die.

So, go here, click on select a file, then choose your image and upload. Then, you'll get window with settings for your image where you can change compression percentage and so on, but it automatically sets quality on 75%, so let's see the result (btw I resized the image):


I guess there shouldn't be any noticable difference on 85% compression, btw you can try it to see results yourself and do the same in future on this forum to help those who use mobile data to save network

Useful links together:
1. JPG/PNG only compression: https://tinyjpg.com/
2. Convert JPG/PNG and compresses into webp: https://compress-or-die.com/webp
3. GIF compression: https://compress-or-die.com/webp
4. Image resize: https://resizeimage.net/
Btw, good luck guys!

Will update the list in near future.

This is just the default setting on everyone. Don't worry, no one from FJ will ever ask you to gamble in order to collect higher than 0.004 bitcoin for withdrawal. I guess, Hhampuz will report this issue and participants will be able to withdraw without any problem.
