Even though I believe that everyone should get rakeback and there shouldn't be "if it is dust then you get nothing" type of situation, I also believe that someone does it as a whole should have a difference as well. I mean a person who wagers 1 million all together and someone who wagers max 5 cents but has 1 million total wagered should not be both getting the same thing.

One of them is risking a lot more than the other, and that is a very important situation. I am not saying that people should not be focusing on betting for a higher wagering amount, of course they could do that but that doesn't mean that we should not be promoting all-in betting neither, many casinos should improve that all together and that is a lot more important for casinos since it leaves them a chance to get a ton of money suddenly vs the guy who wagers few cents who will not leave too much money all together, maybe small by small over course of years.

There are way too many places who doesn't use this type of stuff and they still end up with a lot of customers. Look at how many places there are out in the world who doesn't have free faucet type of deal and they are still doing fine. However most of them did had it back in the day, or they give out free bets or something like rakeback or whatever. Basically you get something in return whenever you gamble and that is the most important part right now.

I personally believe that what they are doing right now is a great idea, but it is not something that can go on for a long time, it is something that should be ending eventually. What we are seeing right now as a good thing is not good forever, it will eventually become something that will bad for the casino if they keep doing this for a long time. At the end of the day we are still dealing with something good for now, but it is temporarily good until they have their customer base at enough level, after that it will become not so great.

This is really a strange situation compared to the practices of my country.

I am sure, cryptocurrencies are not legal tender in Thailand but at least the government ha cleared about their stand for being neutral? Not sure about that. (I remember when China was banning all crypto related activities, few countries like Taiwan or Indonesia announced like inviting crypto enthusiast for running crypto business but not sure Thailand was one of them).

A bank is acquiring crypto business means that the government is positive about crypto related business.
I hope crypto will find another round of boom with the help of any positive announcement from Thailand government.

And I guess running a crypto exchange for a bank is not a big deal among all security vulnerability. So, you may not concern on that.

It was expected for the fuel industry to get back to normal. After all we are talking about something that is basically just a situation where there is a huge demand which makes it worthy to make it work and then supply will reach anyway. If there is a money to be made at something then people will do it, everyone keeps doing it and that is called business. If there is so much fuel need in the world, even with pandemic causing such a big break and problem for them, eventually oil industry worked on it and cover all that need.

This is why I do call marketcap is just another scammy thing that we must need to avoid for any kind of consideration. I just wonder how shibu got into top 10 in coinmarketcap list, just because of its massive circulating supply? Its prices too far away from 1 US cent still it  managed to get into top 10, really a classic example how manipulation works and may definitely deceive naive investors to choose the manipulated coins rather than choosing the potential coins. I really hate this type of situations.

I feel little ambiguous here; what is the difference between more time spending for gambling and increased gambling habit. Probably those 63% of gamblers are already into gambling but due to pandemic they find themselves to be gambling more than before and the 12% of people may not be the regular gamblers but they get more gambling habits due to lockdown/isolation reasons.

I am sure that after medical and other related sectors, gambling must be one of the prominent field which got big boom in last 18 months of pandemic. Moreover, not sure how many of us going to be more severally gambling in near future because the habit we picked up during the pandemic times. 

Instead of asking us to go studying about Shia, why not you link us to exact resources where I could enlighten myself about shiba and its potential; honestly I am curious to know about this sh!tcoin. Also, you need to explain why you feel dogecoin is turned down right now. I am not thinking so. Rather simply stating your opinion, you must provide proper explanation so that we could get your view exactly.

Making a community to believe on something is not easier; dogecoin did that because it was the first one and people treated it on the same way but in crypto space and right now shiba is trying to copy through speculative way but I am not sure how long it will last as at any time, it may get dumped by its whales by leaving off all individual investors at peril.

Yeah community is more important one for the success of a coin still building a stronger community is not that easier because it requires real potential to attract adapters, investors and traders. Lots of coins, I have seen are lagging in any of real life utilities which means they are purely created for speculative purposes alone. So, you cannot expect them to be flourishing ever as they will definitely get dumped over the time.

The dangers of new coins always prevail. Personally I will not risk into such new things rather I will opt to go with old and reputed coins as they got minimum assurance for my capital at least in USD value even I always look to gain in BTC values.

What kind of astrology is this? A Chinese's one? Because, I heard their astrology is basically based on animals. How often this will repeat? For example, the first one (tiger, red) will come again or not? If it will come again means after how many other phases?

I always welcome different interpretations and perspectives and this time you have brought up astrology based one. The only thing, you must have included is some reference link, I really want to check and project these into the near future because like most others here, I am too keen on knowing the future rather than just getting know about the past.

I have seen people were predicting bullion markets based on moon signs. Not common everywhere but few signal providers include moon signs to justify/support their predictions.

Yeah bear market is inevitable as the same bulls are the core factors to trigger it; profit booking must be the first reason for bearish trend. So, regardless of how much positive we are while bullish trend, we tend to act to exit which is basic human nature to protect the profits. So, how intensively being bullish right now may not be insignificant when people psychologically getting ready to exit; this is the reason round numbers are acting like strongest support or resistance levels.

I read that even long term holders are speculating about bear markets in near future which means they may profit book some 5 to 10% of their holding to maximize the number of bitcoin holding. So, preparing anything like that will benefit ourselves to make use of bearish trend as well.

Yeah, we can be sure about $1M not possible in 2022. It must need one more halving to happen as per my speculation. By this current bullish trend I guess we could expect up to $500k levels if this trend continues to 2022. Otherwise we may end up around $120k levels by end of this year. I guess the November month may get us exact clue on where we are going to finish 2021 which might lead us to speculate on 2022 later on.

I agree with your realistic predictions still I am just extending that into bubble region as usually we do finish off all bullish trend into bubbles. Hence, I am expecting this bullish trend as well will conclude with a strong bubble which may be around $500k levels.

Yeah, honestly this gambling industry is on hunting to bring something new to compete dicing so that gamblers will find more entertaining and exciting to continue their gambling. I feel like bust a dice or rocket run kind of games were introduced with same reasons like being simple and easier to understand. I guess we must need to be ready such more simple yet exciting dice kind of games in near future.

Plako must be something very much new as I never got chances to hear such a game. If OP takes time to explain more on this then I guess we can move forward by looking at how interesting and easier to play compared to dicing or slots.

Here after performing well may not bring them any more chances in this world cup. Even toss is playing a crucial role, I just wonder why Indian bowling attack is lagging with intent? I do not think that bowling Varun in powerplay overs a good options or at least should be allowed for only one over to make batsmen not getting comfortable against pace attack. Kohli's team selection and making Rohit not to open kind of decisions are really surprising. It seems India player may focus only on IPL or they may need some player who are all only specialist for T20 format and not playing other 2 formats. India may need to forget about semi final birth unless otherwise some magic happens in remaining matches.

I guess we had another big discussion on why bitcoin is different from ponzi and all network marketing schemes. So, we must make use of what people discussion as their opinion are more effective way to defense people who are arguing against bitcoin. Overall, I guess we must spread awareness against all the rumors of bitcoin and for that we must make use of this forum discussion to enlighten people.

When are are able to convince at least 20% of world population then rest of people will easily adapt bitcoin without big hesitations. In rough estimate only less than 5% of world population are using bitcoin so far hence we have very long road ahead of us.

This is the reason I feel that Vitalik's opinion may not need to remain true forever (I remember he was too confident about hardfork on bitcoin blockchain to scale but bitcoin adapted segwit instead). Crypto payments will be available to everyone in near future which means it will be substantially used by everyone regardless of they are liking the volatile nature or they love decentralized concepts.

What into I believe more is, even tier-1 country people are being served by traditional finance system decently, we cannot expect them not to adapt revolutionary new system. At least for a change people may prefer to try it. This is the point where Vitalik's opinion turns complete wrong.

Yeah, OP is referring that being lesser volatile means cryptocurrencies will hit main stream adoption. I agree with that conception still I personally do not need and I am not seeing the possibilities for that to happen for next 50 to 80 years of time frame. Yeah, bitcoin and most other cryptocurrencies will remain volatile for prolong period from here and which may get into stable state only most world population adapt and use on day to day life along with bitcoin gets all its supply into circulation. As of now, it is time to enjoy the volatile nature cryptocurrencies because our next generations definitely cannot get a such big opportunity.

I also believe that they are proof of a successful business for the future casino owners as well. I mean yes it is hard as I mentioned, and I can't do it myself, maybe with a bunch of people all getting together could be a better one, but it is at least showing some signs of success. This means that we are in a situation where we get to see crypto casinos are getting to become big business' and not just some small time thing.

I remember way back when satoshidice was an on-chain gambling business, the very first casino ever, and it was such a difficult job, it was such a brand new thing, people saw it as an "experiment" at the very best. Now we have dozens of great casinos all over and the ones like betfury grow so big that they have their whole token system in place as well. So even though I agreed that it is something I can't do myself, betfury does pave the way for others to take them as example.

Because, most investors and traders are dealing with multiple coins at a time for diversification reasons. When you get a negative or positive news and if you are an active trader then what will you do? You may do same type of decision for all your coins, right? Because, your ultimate goal must be making money and the news you got may impact all the cryptos in general (China's recent ban on crytpo activities must be such a common news for all cryptos). So, it is most common like frequently happening that all cryptos are heading in same direction. So, nothing strange on what you have observed.

Yeah possible, but what about the bookies who has fixed a match and know the result of an upcoming match when he got access to such a list of gambler's email/mobile number? Definitely they will try to maximize the odds by spreading opposite result to group people who are tend to bet with.

Honestly I have received such email and PM from newbies of this forum itself. There are hundreds of such scammy telegram groups are available. They may not give all tips for making you lose. They may give tips which may get you at least 50% chances to win and another 50% of betting will boost their profits by enabling you to bet opposite to their match fixing.

For me and in my country, the situation is complete different. As we are not having almost zero opportunity to bet with fiats (lotteries are available at some part of my country and in my state it is again fully banned), crypto gambling is the only option for all of us and I guess most of my friends got into gambling only after adapting cryptocurrencies especially bitcoins.

I guess my government will continue their neutral stand against crypto and crypto related gambling as bypassing government restriction will be easier and possible for anyone hence I guess government has left it to gambler's personal responsibility.
