for gamblers, they like the feature here as even if they lose some money, they can earn BFG tokens. so for some, it is like a win-win situation as they not totally lose their funds but at least gain some tokens, with actual value in the market. because in most casinos you are just losing your money without getting any return, even cash back or reward. this is why, gambling on this casino is quite attractive to some, because as they enjoy playing they are also getting tokens that they can stake or use for farming.
The drop rate of BFG per bet is not that high compared when I start playing here and mine BFG tokens. Actually it's not a win-win anymore because free BFG token for a regular session of my gambling is not worth a penny compared before. So if you are gambling just to earn BFG or if you want to add BFG tokens to your holdings, I preferred doing it in a passive way because its not worth risking money just to earn more tokens. Just buy it on exchange or stake tokens on DeFi to earn BFG because it has better APY than the drop rate per game.

Its not wrong to gamble for fun and win extra tokens as reward but if you are gambling with a single purpose of increasing your BFG tokens position, That will the worst case idea that a person will do.
It is not supposed to be going higher and higher constantly like that, it suppose to attract customers and you are already here so it means that it worked.

If you leave because of it, you are not the type of gambler they want unfortunately, they want to attract people with promotions like that, and then when they come here they should be putting their deposit here and gamble and then they forget about the free stuff and just like gambling here. That is the type of people casinos want, people who do not much in return and just enjoy gambling. This isn't just about betfury neither, every casino would want something like that and that is the important part.
1882  Economy / Economics / Re: Sanctions left and right, Can the Russian economy survive? on: April 06, 2022, 07:04:11 PM
Putin's entourage already admits that neither they nor Putin expected such a unity of states for Russia's open full-scale aggression against Ukraine and such powerful and hitherto unprecedented international sanctions imposed on Russia. This shocks them and puts them in a blind alley, from which they no longer see a way out, but they tell the public that everything was thought out and planned in advance, since other words will lead to discontent among the people inside Russia. After just a few weeks of these sanctions, which continue to intensify, we see how much worse life in Russia. And this is just the beginning. Therefore, the effect of these sanctions this time will be greater. We will be able to compare how Russians will live in six months or a year. According to a recent poll, about 82 percent of Russians support Putin in his attack on Ukraine and massacres of civilians. Let's see what they say by the end of this year.
I do not think that they are feeling any insecurity about the situation though. Maybe they were shocked that we were in a unity against Russia, and put sanctions and everyone went crazy but at the same time we are talking about a situation where Russia is not doing bad economically.

Even after Bucha, people are still buying gas and petrol and whatever they need from Russia, this is 2022 and there is a massacre, even calling it genocide, going in Ukraine right now and nobody really stops working with them. Sanctions do not work because people are still dealing with them, which is proof that Russia is still doing fine because they are capable of selling things to Europe right now.
1883  Economy / Economics / Re: WTF? Food prices expected to raise up to 50% in German supermarket. on: April 06, 2022, 06:25:05 PM
I posted about something like that months ago, specifically in Germany. The fastest, most efficient and the cleanest, or "clean enough" way to generate energy in the E.U.is through Nuclear. That" if they want a real solution to be independent from Russian natural gas.

Plus by winter if the E.U. and Russia has not come to a resulotion with this "Ukraine issue", they better have the Rouble to pay Putin.
The problem there is that you can't make a car go with nuclear energy. So, you still need some petrol in your country for many things, not just cars of course but that is probably mainly it, and airplanes as well if I am not wrong, that was Jetfuel right?

This is why I believe that we shouldn't really be considering being totally out of need of Russia. They will need Russia for a long time, but they could need them less, that us all they could hope for. They could also get it from places like Saudiarabia but to be honest I am not sure which of the two nations is worse, I feel like Russia looks cute compared to horrible things Saudiarabia is known to do.
1884  Economy / Speculation / Re: Predicts Bitcoin price by 2025 on: April 05, 2022, 08:11:14 PM
I think predicting the price of bitcoin in 2025 may be too far to predict, but I judge with Bitcoin becoming increasingly popular, predicting the price of bitcoin in the next few years is still reasonable. But, the question in predicting bitcoin long term is whether Bitcoin will still exist in 2025? If the answer to this question is yes, then it is very likely that the price of bitcoin will soar much higher in the next few years.
I would guess that it wasn't just 3x, I mean sure from one ATH to another ATH we reached 3x that part is very true. However, what you are forgetting is the fact that we weren't at 20k when the next bull run started, we were at around 10k and even lower during march 2020, which means that after the halving we reached to 60k+ which was nearly 10x and even more when you consider the bottom and the top.

The lowest we reached was under 4k for a short period of time, and highest we reached in 2021 was 68k, you can calculate the difference. This is a proof that bitcoin can still do 10x when the timing is right. If we do that today, that would be 450k, so it doesn't matter what our ATH is, we should only care what the price is right before the halving to see how big it could get.
1885  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Crypto Scams now the second largest in the world on: April 05, 2022, 05:51:01 PM
How sad to see this kind of News imagine there are so much happening in the world but crypto becomes the most scamming area in regards to profiting ?
maybe it is indeed but also I can see this to be a positive one because look at how many market we have in the world yet crypto become the ranked number  1 in scam so there are many people here that interested in the market because there are lots of money inside and this is very healthy .
Unfortunately, the fact that if you get scammed, there is a big chance that you will never see that money back again, and people do not even work for it is the main reason. Don't get me wrong, there are scams in the regular world everyday as well, but there is at least courts for that and even though you can't get your money back most of the time there, you will also end up putting that person in jail or make them a fugitive which is something you could feel a bit better about, not enough but at least something, in crypto there isn't even that most of the time.

This is why scammers prefer crypto these days, since they know they may get away with it without even getting sued.
1886  Economy / Economics / Re: Pay in rubles or have your gas shut off by April on: April 05, 2022, 09:30:24 AM
Russia's military aggression against Ukraine has not yet subsided. In Russia, they realized that they could not effectively attack Ukraine from three sides, as they had previously counted on the minimum resistance of the Ukrainian armed forces. The Armed Forces of Ukraine, having already 8 years of experience in military operations, very competently took advantage of the situation and do not arrange frontal battles, but operate in small groups with the support of artillery and aviation, inflicting pinpoint and tangible losses on the enemy. Therefore, in the first month of the war, Russia lost more than 40,000 people killed, wounded and captured. Military equipment "the second army of the world" has already lost about 40 percent, eight of the ten invading armies of Russia.
They can try any tactics they want to try, it will not succeed for one simple reason. Russia is fighting with soldiers, and that makes sense, people who have military experience and guns and armour and weapons and tanks etc etc, that is how you go to a war. However, Ukraine has the advantage of the fact that they are fighting as a whole nation. Sure there are some people who are fleeing the nation and going to other nations.

But, every single person who stayed back, will be fighting Russia. So, it is not about Russia military versus Ukrainian military, it is more like Russian soldiers vs EVERYONE in Ukraine right now. This is why they are failing, and will keep on failing.

I heard that Gavi has not reached an agreement regarding a new contract with Barca. Even a Busquet had also spoken to them to stay. But it looks like Gavi wants to get paid more so many rumors say he's leaving soon. If this happens of course Barca's loss, Gavi is a valuable asset. He is still young and he is a future Barcelona player.  At least if indeed they want to leave it is not now possible for the future, because their road is still wide and Barcelona is the best place at the moment for him.

Source: https://www.sport.es/en/news/barca/busquets-gavi--araujo-know-those-that-leave-barca-always-regret-it-13455798
He is a great player and he will be missed for sure. But in Xavi's style, one player doesn't disturb everything, they will do fine without him. And not like he is some world superstar type of player neither, he could get paid more in some other team, if City manages to snatch him and Pep gets to use him? Boy oh boy, he will be so much better.

But, he is not at a level where he may leave and the team will suck because of that, they will get another player and they will be fine. This is why I believe that Barcelona is not worried, either he accepts their offer or he just leaves, they are not worried since they can get another player for sure.
1888  Economy / Speculation / Re: Evaluate your Bitcoin for next year on: April 04, 2022, 09:53:29 PM
I think I can agree on the first line of your sentence. I sometimes say that it was a bull run when I saw the btc price is rising all by itself but not the rest of the coin or the market as a whole but for some they will only say that there is a bull market once they saw all coins are at their highest peak.

For the bear season, there is only one thing I am basing it at and that is when the whole market experience a heavy fall. I don't only know if what are the others basis to consider a bear season. The up and down movement your saying will never disappear in this market because that is what makes the crypto however the intensity of it is sometimes lower than usual.
Bull run happens when the dollar price of everything goes up 20% in a week for me. That is bull run, if the crypto in general (or mainly the top 30 ones) goes up 20% in a week, that was a bull run. We just had one give or take, it was still a bull run but a short and quick one if you ask me.

I wouldn't limit it to just bitcoin, but I wouldn't expect every single coin to go up neither. I just feel like just top 30 or so, with some exceptions because there are some bad ones even in top 30, and that would be enough. Going up like 3-5% is normal as well, so that is not really the deal, so it needs to be more like 20%+ in a week so that I could consider it a bull run.
1889  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: La Liga (Spanish League) Prediction Thread 2020/21 on: April 04, 2022, 09:35:25 PM
Barcelona has won as expected and for the first time this season, they have been able to move up to second place in the table. Barcelona's performance at the start of the season was so poor that it was almost unrealistic to think that they could be in the top five. But Xavi made it possible. And if they can maintain this performance, and if Real Madrid loses points, then maybe there will be a tough fight for the title.
Sevilla is now fourth in the table and just 4 points ahead of Betis. They have managed to score only 6 points in the last 5 matches. Sevilla will fail to qualify for the Champions League if they fail to improve their performance.
On what basis can this happen? Of the potentially difficult matches, only games with Sevilla, Atlético Madrid and Betis remained. The rest of the games with complete outsiders that Real will win even with the second squad. The advantage of Real Madrid is 9 points. The easiest finish in the championship and a guaranteed title. By the way, this allows them to direct the main resource to the Champions League games.
First of all I do not think that real would lose the championship, I mean they are good enough to keep it going and 9 points is too big of a difference to lose at this stage of the year. Plus they played against each other as well so that advantage is over as well. Sevilla would be one that I am guessing would do well enough at the very best chance, but nobody else looks to be solid enough to give them a trouble.

Even if they somehow managed to lose 9 points exactly, I feel like Barcelona can't end the season with 100% win rate, they will lose points eventually somewhere, and that would seal the deal that we are not going to see Barcelona championship this year.
1890  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Where will ZIL coin go? on: April 04, 2022, 08:56:49 PM
Good for you that you don't sell at loss due to boredom and disappointment because 1 year is a bit long and you didn't expect that this coin will go down after you bought it because the reason why you bought it is because you think it will continue to rise.

You deserve whatever you got yesterday for selling the coin but you said you keep on selling it? Will that means you didn't sold all yesterday? Why? Are you waiting for more price increase? It looks like you didn't learn your lesson yet but don't worry because this coin looks like it has a potential. This coin was in the level of other top coins if I am not wrong. That is the reason why it recovers.
You are right, there are a lot of people who hold coins way longer than they should and that is a big problem for sure. I do not get why people react to crypto like they are fanatics, if you should sell then you should sell and there is nothing more to it. If you are losing money left and right because you are too fanatic to sell at the right time then maybe you should check what you are doing a bit more carefully.

I am not saying that you shouldn't, but that also doesn't mean that you should keep it going for a long time neither if it looks bad. Keep them when you see them having a potential, but sell them when you start to feel like it would be the smarter move.
1891  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why are there no altcoins that can replace Bitcoin? on: April 02, 2022, 09:35:31 PM
Not all cryptocurrencies are decentralized as Bitcoin. Majority of them are centralized and can be controlled by the developers or platform that owns it. Although some of them have promised to become fully decentralized as they continue to expand. And one of those that has promised to become fully decentralized is Solana, and I believe that they are getting to that stage now.

But, even at that they wouldn’t still come any close to Bitcoin, it is always going to be the topping the cryptocurrency market and that is the cryptocurrency most people are making sure that they invest in. As for the other cryptocurrencies, you just invest whatever little amount that is left in them.
That decentralization is not the "main" reason why they can't get close. Don't get me wrong, that is a very big deal but the fact that bitcoin has been here the longest and caused a big love from the people, is the main reason. We can see that bitcoin doesn't have the best blockchain, no smart contracts, not even cheap after so many developments, no nft, no meta, no new things.

Just plain old bitcoin that you could buy and sell, you really do not do much else with it. Why then it is the biggest? Because of love, people love it the most for sure and trust it the most. This requires a lot more than just technology or the system to break, you need a lot more than that to make people not love it as much.
1892  Economy / Economics / Re: Russia wants to build a new world order with China on: April 02, 2022, 11:49:49 AM
it will be difficult to shift America, which has long been a superpower in the global economic system,,,, but that does not mean it is impossible, the possibility that will shift America's position in the future is China, but it will also take decades to come
Right about that, the word knows for sure that America will not be ready to give up the power easily. They would also try as much as possible to make sure that they retain their status as the world’s superpower. And there is no doubt that they are seeing what is happening, and it’s clear that they already see China as an opposition, so they would fight as much as possible to make sure that their economy and everything keeps growing so that they stay on top.

I’ve seen some analysts who have predicted that by 2030 to 2050, that China would be the world’s superpower. But, one thing we also have to know is that these predictions are based on what we are seeing presently, but we can’t really tell what would happen in the future.
1893  Economy / Speculation / Re: Bitcoin Breakout on: April 01, 2022, 07:10:05 PM
It would be nice if you want to make a purchase in the break out zone, we wait for confirmation or we wait for the price to retest again at the broken support level. Do not rush to buy, it is to anticipate market manipulation. If there is confirmation that BTC is going up, then the next target will be testing the resistance zone at 50K.
But it's very difficult to time it and to know where in the dip so that we can buy a lot. So far the breakout is finished already, it's not fake break out but rather we may have reached it's top around $48,000. And now we are in a correction, although it's just the beginning of the month and many things can happen specially in the 2nd-3rd, so I will wait for that time frame and hopefully we can get into that $50,000 zone.
It's not, it's really not that hard to time it at all. When you see the price hit 68k, then drop to under 35k, you KNOW that it is a low price, you are 100% sure that it s a low price. We are talking about a 50% drop and you are not certain? Price reached from the top to 50% lower and at that point even if it is not "the bottom", like even if it could go down more, it is guaranteed that you are buying it a lot cheaper than you otherwise could during hyped days.

If you didn't, and if you missed out because you waited for even lower, that is on you but there were many of us who knew that the price would go up from there, even if it went lower at first, it would have been higher eventually and we bought it at that level.
1894  Economy / Economics / Re: Government backed digital currency may lead in dystopian society on: April 01, 2022, 11:30:04 AM
There is no difference with paper money if you mean the Crypto Dollar system. The government just doesn't want funds flowing in and out without scrutiny. Because if this continues, the money laundering rate will increase and cause the printing of banknotes to swell. As a result, like it or not, the government that is being predicted with the Dollar crypto currency program or better known as the CBDC is only an alibi to adapt conventional auditing to blockchain technology. Even though the essence is the same, namely finance wants funds to flow in and out without any monitoring.
Everything that has an advantage also has a disadvantage. While there are people who simply want to make use of Bitcoin and other truly decentralized cryptocurrencies because they need privacy with their life, there are people who are taking that opportunity to misuse cryptocurrency. There are people who are using it for the wrong purposes, such as scamming and money laundering.

Decentralization may seem like it is bad in some ways, but centralization also has its own cons. And that is why a lot of people are trying to avoid it as much as possible. But, what can we do? Since the good opportunity that has been given to us are being misused by some people?
1895  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Real life utility question on: April 01, 2022, 08:23:32 AM
Is crypto now more than a speculative asset or just the same old thing based on hypes only because it seems like real life use case is far from crypto, we want it to happen for real but it's really not happening, what is stopping this from happening already.
I think it's very difficult for crypto to merge with the real life. because not everyone can accept the presence of crypto because crypto is decentralized which makes some people worried. and to make crypto into real life, special regulations about cryptocurency are needed so that people don't feel worried and feel safe with crypto.
I do think that it is not easy but I also do not believe that it is impossible neither. I mean it is quite obvious that we are talking about something that is a bit of a difficult thing to challenge but fiat world is getting more and more accustomed to crypto as well. We are seeing more and more things that you could do with your crypto and I am not really sure what we could do about that at all.

Hopefully we won't be doing anything big, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't focus on anything hyped right now, just learn that it is getting bigger and better, and eventually we will be doing much bigger as well and will earn a lot more.
1896  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Tips and tricks for day trading on: March 31, 2022, 08:35:48 PM
There are several strategies in day trading and you can choose them according to your plan in the future and also convenience. To do day trading is a bit tiring because our focus will be divided and we also have to move quickly to make sure we get the right moment in a short time, even a matter of minutes. it will be a little troublesome for beginners but if indeed you are interested in trying it then that's good.
This will not be the behavior of a trade that wants to succeed. It needs passion and a sort of dedication. Pursuing a dream is not easy, time, effort, and we never have to feel tired or else, we only just fail. What I am trying to say is that we have to be strong and positive. We have to neglect/ignore negative things around us as this will be the reason for our failure.

- keep moving forward
- focus on the thing we need to accomplish
- must wear positivity in mind
The passion part is quite important. If you do not really "want" to trade, if the only reason you want to do this is to get rich right away and get out. Then you will only focus on how to make money part and you will fail. The real successful traders will always end up doing the best they could do in the trading world because they love doing it, not just for the money.

Of course the money part is very important but that doesn't mean that their only aim would be getting rich and stopping. Look at all those super rich traders, they did not stop when they got rich, maybe just a few. This means you need to learn and love doing this to become a good one.

In a weeks time the trade on rupee - ruble trade confirmation will be done. This will help India spend less for the imports against the usage of dollar. The rupee - ruble trade mechanism will help lot of Indian firms to make businesses with ease. Maybe this can affect the relationship of Western Nations with India due to the trade. Some say India is selfish, but every country on its own tries to benefit. India too doing the same while USA is making it an opportunity to make them more powerful.

India and Russia Could Have a Rupee-Ruble Trade Agreement Early Next Week
If something done could help a nation get better and richer, they should not worry about the threat of other nations and just focus on getting richer. There is no sanctions against India, there are sanctions against Russia, which means that Russia can't deal with the west, but India can deal with Russia.

So, all these empty threats means nothing in the face of betterment of a nation. I hate Russia as much as the next guy, Russia is a terrible nation and Putin is a horrible dictator, he is Hitler 2.0 for sure and I hope he is deposed very soon. But if it means that my nation will get richer and better economy if we deal with them, then I would definitely try to do my best to do that.
1898  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What if Bitcoin Fails ? on: March 31, 2022, 06:15:45 PM
we all know very well that the Internet is never going to fail, the Internet is always there and it is part of our advancement. In our world today all of us are relying on the Internet for several things. Assuming that the Internet should go down around the world for a day, trust me there are so many things that would be disrupted.

There are so many things that we do on a daily which requires the Internet and the last thing that you would ever want to see is the Internet going down for any reason.

And we all know for sure that that will never happen. And as for Bitcoin, we all know that it is never going to end. Even if the government will ban it, people are still going to continue making use of bitcoin because it is decentralized and there are platforms that support that.
I can't even imagine a scenario where internet could fail and I would be doing alright. I am so dependent on internet that the day internet is down, like when there is a problem with the ISP or something, I become a very idiot and angry horribly bored person. I literally need internet to survive at this rate, because if that was gone I wouldn't be able to live my life the way I know how, and everything would be terrible.

Bitcoin is not there yet, it is nowhere near that level yet, it is getting there, and in a decade I am sure it will be there, this is more like 90's of the internet world where it was great but if it was gone that wouldn't mean the world would stop, right now it would stop and the whole world would go crazy.
1899  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: What have been your crypto trading experience on: March 31, 2022, 12:55:01 PM
Not much guides, just the basics and mostly experiences. The losing part, precisely. That's where you learn most, from all of your mistakes.
If you can get up after all the rekt that happened to you, then you are good.
A trader must accept all the possibilities and that includes losing. Once you get over it, other problems will mostly be easy to deal with.
Even experts in the field are likely to have gone through it and I doubt they will be called "experts" if they didn't make it through.
Satisfaction is also a key, $1 - $10 profits when I started but it felt great for me.
If you could learn from your mistakes and rarely ever repeat them to eventually not even repeating them ever, then you will become a great trader. A big loss is the biggest lesson you could take, there is nothing wrong with losing money in trading because everyone does so eventually. Even warren buffet has years where he was negative, but when you look at it overall, he is in a big positive and keeps that up for decades now.

This is what you need to aim at, sure you could have bad years but you need ot be long term and successful when trading. There will be losses but at the end of the day you need to be getting better after each loss and becoming better.
1900  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar - UEFA Qualifiers on: March 31, 2022, 05:08:14 AM
It's quite painful for Egypt because Senegal has twice thwarted egypt efforts this year, after destroying Egypt in the Africa Cup of Nations, now Senegal managed to stop Egypt from being able to play in the 2022 World Cup in qatar, both teams did have a pretty good performance but sadly Egypt are not in lucky condition this year, but I think senegal win has been marred by unsportsmanlike behavior from the fans and it's really very unfortunate, throughout the match the egyptian players continued to be attacked by the senegal fans with lasers and obviously it irritated the Egyptian players.
In my opinion, Salah penalty miss  was none other than the act of Senegal fans who kept firing lasers at Salah face, causing Salah kick to deviate from the goal.
It's just unlucky for them. It was already expected that Senegal would win again, they are just a bit better and that shows in the game itself. Salah is a great player but World Cup is just a way too big of a organization to get bad teams there all the time. Don't get me wrong, it does happen time to time and I am sure that we could find at least one team that would be worse than Egypt this year as well.

It just doesn't happen because elimination process makes sure that some good teams matchup with other good teams and at least one good team gets eliminated, when bad team vs bad team matches up, a bad team could go and this is why we see good teams eliminated at times, and bad teams going instead.
