1901  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: November 21, 2022, 11:50:15 AM
Yes, consistency is the key for them right now but I can see a hope for them. Last games were not so bad for them, I feel like we might see a little improvement in the at least short term. I agree with your point about Lebron. I hugely respect him and actually love his approach to basketball in the last 5-10 years, but he cannot carry the team anymore. He is just merely too old. That must be accepted by everyone, most of all Lebron. He is still a huge star but it is obvious that some things have to be changed for Lakers, and Lebron might be the biggest of them.
Look, I confess that I also realized this... from some games, I saw that the Lakers had a little bit of improvement, but what will say if this is real or not... is consistency, I believe he will have to maintain this performance to know if this is a real improvement or not
Regarding LeBron James, unfortunately he is getting old and doesn't have the same ability to "carry the team on his back" as he used to, he is still an all star player, but unfortunately age is coming for him

It's not that LeBron already loses his capabilities to lift a team but more on the competition itself is more ready for LeBron, lots of stars who are now playing with high competition game.

We will see if the consistency of Lakers will continue playing against the Spurs,
they have the advantage in terms of papers but we never know how they will manage to
beat the unpredictable Spurs.

LeBron may not be what he used to be, but I still think he's king. Currently, the Los Angeles Lakers are standing with Anthony Davis in the last 3 games in his absence, but he will be more effective when he comes back. They had a three-game winning streak and now they have an away streak to play. If they manage to win in these matches, they will have a chance to play off, but it is very difficult to talk about the championship.

LeBron can't carry a team anymore, though he can still fill the stat sheet, but his presence in the court is unlike before when he's still in his prime. I'm not even sure how great is his impact once he gets back to the court, because honestly the Lakers were playing well without him. I know he's got a good basketball IQ, so he'll probably going to come up with a good plan for the Lakers to be a competitive team again.
Next up for them is a much tougher opponent than their last 5 games.

Lebron's main concern now is his stats since he has a legacy to protect. Look what happen now to lakers where there's no LBJ on the court there rotation is quite good and for winning 2 consecutive game is morale booster to them. If they can still win on  3rd or even more games without him then I guess its for them to decide what will be the next plan on their rotation.

If you are not comfortable using it for now maybe seek more feedbacks comes from there user then see to it that if those people really getting a nice experience by using that platfrom.

Also so far using this for months never get any problem but since this is also new to me I didn't tend to put some huge volume of BTC since I'm to skeptical about using other platforms which I didn't used for years. So if you want to try maybe use only what you need for transaction or anything you want.
1903  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can Solana rise again? on: November 19, 2022, 01:14:37 PM
For me, it was normal that Solana experienced a huge dump because yeah FTX exchange is a big backer of Solana, and Solana for FTX exchange is like a BNB of Binance or CRO of Crypto.com
So for me, now that FTX exchange already filed bankruptcy and Alameda too. Solana is still here because it's not the same on what happened on Luna Ecosystem which it is direct issue with the project, Solana is different.

Yes, it could be very different scenario for Solana, but still though, they have been drag in this issues that it might take sometime for them to recovery (that is if they can bounce back).

So for me personally, this is not a financial advise, but I will stir clear of Solana for the meantime, until everything settles down a bit as the market is clearly very crazy because of this FTX collapse and everyone is very edgy on it's feet.

Maybe their relation creates some panic to their investors but since SOL is still alive and kicking for sure it still have possibilities that it will rise up. This one is still place in top alts so for sure FTX controversy will be nothing once great recovery will happen(bull run) since for sure many people will forget about those issues.

For now maybe the holders of SOL decrease but once it is slowly recovering for sure those past holders will comeback to get some profits for holding or investing back again.

Looks like a great game, user interface looks very appealing. I haven’t played yet, I’ve been really busy & as you say the crypto charts are dominating my mood at the moment Grin

I will play on the weekend when I have some free time away from working.

I’m also keen to see user experience. Guys please share your thoughts on this new game.


Also sharing the same moment at this time because taking a little break from gambling and managing my funds in the recent crash but the game itself looks appealing and will gave it a try to see how it works and how is the overall experience with the game.Not on this weekend but after it surely as have other plans for this weekend.But you can surely give your shot and tell us your experience @LFC_Bitcoin.

In some cases its good time to deposit some crypto's if you want to gamble because you can get more higher volume compare if you bough it at expensive price. Although I'm holding some bitcoins now since I bought it at $20k but I didn't stop to have fun on some casino since I have spare money to use and buy some new bitcoins which is I think much ideal to do compare if you sell it at lose and decide to stop for a while since you might not have a chance to recover what you lose in value for dropping that decision.
1905  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Crypto.com Accidentally Sent $400M to Rival Exchange on: November 18, 2022, 11:51:06 PM
Kris, the CEO of crypto.com has answered this through his twitter account.

https://twitter.com/kris/status/1591741801245052928

Go through his tweet as it's a series of tweets so, there goes his explanation along through with the "fud" that's made people worry about them too.

Some manipulators just using some incidents just to create more fuds so that they can get better position and gain more money if bitcoin recovers. And people need to have critical thinking so that they will not get easily burned out by fuds spreader out by person who want to take advantage on some situations.
1906  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: We Feel All The Emotions When We Gamble on: November 18, 2022, 10:23:57 PM
But at times, the way we handle our emotions matters a lot, because it's not just all about feeling it, but been able not to allow your emotions make you cause harm to either yourself or those around you. Because I have seen a situation whereby a man gambled with all his life savings, and when he eventually found out he lost the game, went and committed suicide and died, living his poor wife a widow with kids to take care of (I.e responsibilities).
So in the notch shell, our ability not to allow one mistake made during gambling to affect our life matters a lot
You are right, we must have emotional control in gambling and limit the number of bets in gambling so that we never lose anything else except just the amount of money we allocate for gambling, I am very concerned to read your statement above if that ever happens in the real world and I can't imagine how the life of his wife and children would be without leaving anything for their future.

Normal to get caught up by our emotion since there are some situation which is uncontrollable especially when we are caught off guard and want to chase back the losses we got. Most of newbies encounter this and sometimes its hard to follow what we set up because if we are in the game sometimes we forget about our game plan and continue the game because we still enjoy playing.
1907  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: I hardly have up to $100 again in all my fait bank accounts since I joined BTT on: November 18, 2022, 11:27:31 AM
That has been the reason many people do not prefer fiat but prefer bitcoin, while also that if bitcoin is probably investment on, can give profit.
No one can invest in fiat because it always devalues.

While inflation does eat fiat value,
you do realize btc dropped from $64K to less than $17K in only a few months.

BTC losses have been worse than inflation.  Tongue


Yes that worst and see how fast it moves this is why we need not to get more emotional in terms of doing decision making base only on what we observe today, I split my balances on multiple alts together with fiat and all of my earnings go straightly on fiat because as of now I think this is safe since volatility is bitcoin is not trusted due to its volatility. So I guess I would rather deal with inflation first and think about my next move rather than hating fiat and go straightly with bitcoin since it could drain all our money if bear market occur.

Gambling sites do not directly tell anyone that you are wasting time gambling on my site.  But they arrange their gambling games in such a way that draws a gambler there again and again.  Its name is addiction.  If it is excessive then it takes a terrible form.  So controlling yourself from gambling is a difficult task which is not possible for everyone.  And he who can do this is the real hero and a smart guy
That is true on my part as well. I see this as entertainment, which means if I am bored and there is nothing to do then I can gamble, which means I would have a little bit of fun and I would limit my deposit so that I would not lose too much, would be willing to deposit as low as 10-20 dollars just so I wouldn't lose much, and just have fun.

But, if I have something to do, a new tv show to watch, a new book to read, a new movie to go see, friends to go meet, anything that I rather do, then I do not feel like gambling at all, it doesn't come to my mind and instead I do the other things. Gambling is basically a method to have fun when you have nothing else to do.

Basically you gamble only when bored so most provably this addiction will not gonna happen if you have a life outside and it will just occur if you are staying at home facing your computer for long hours so to avoid this its really better to anyone to shutdown all things which can give you an access to your computer and never install any casino app on your phone so that you will not get tempted to play wherever you are.
1909  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A lottery's defense to not paying a huge winning. on: November 17, 2022, 11:57:07 PM
I just came across another news,where the lottery company, has now come to a defense of its action for not paying the winner his winnings with claims that winner was involved in irregularities. And that around 2019 he won a huge sum of money from them and now another winner from same outlet which was suspicious to them.
https://leadership.ng/lagos-lottery-coy-says-claimant-of-n72-2m-win-engaged-in-irregularities/

The question is ?
What do you really think of the lottery company and is there any chance for them to winning the case and not paying the winner?



They should announce what irregularity it is so that many people would know that there reason to void or to stop the winner to claim his winnings. If they cannot give good answer with this then maybe we can say that they are avoiding to pay that huge amount of money or they don't have enough funds to cover up that amount. That could ruin their reputation if things didn't well explain to the public.
1910  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SBF BEGGED INVESTORS on: November 17, 2022, 10:49:50 PM
SBF Begged Investors for $7 Billion FTX Rescue Package In Final Days

FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried is ready to save his crypto exchange from catastrophe by begging global investment big guns including Sequoia Capital for $7 billion, having splurged $10 billion in customer funds to prop up his trading firm Alameda.

Although Bankman-Fried insisted FTX and Alameda were separate entities, investor presentations showed the same assets appearing on both simultaneously - enabled by an aide tweaking FTX accounting software to hide transfers of funds between them.

Financial records also showed over $400 million in “software royalty” payments made by FTX to Alameda that were used to buy up the platform’s FTT digital coin to reduce supply and bolster its value.

After all things bad happen to FTX provably SBF cannot gain trust to big investors anymore because they will get a doubt on his management also with his credibility. Its clear right now that FTX is totally done and SBF is just finding ways to save his ass for the anger of people who still have balance on his platform. They really get a huge mess here and I believe alameda and ftx is controlled by same entity.
1911  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: November 17, 2022, 11:26:03 AM
But whatever happens, we'll see how it's going to happen since there are too many rumors out there about trading AD. And why is it that most of those rumors are on him? LOL.
AD can give huge contribution to the team so most provably he is the one who want to have by a team that's why there are trade rumors always brought up on his name because unfortunately on lakers at the moment he has a clear value compare to Westbrook where many team avoid because of his bad performance show lately happen on him. But I guess lakers will not interested om this offer since even though AD is injury prone they can still use them and they just need to rehabilitate this big guy.
It's on the Lakers if they want a change but I also think that AD is a great asset to them and instead of him, they can trade the others that they think add no value to the team currently.
But to have that happen, there should really be letting go of one of the greats that they have so it's either AD or Westbrook. AD contributes really a lot and I can see that Westbrook is also doing the same, the lack of chemistry is what makes them not do well and trade rumors are after them.

Would be perfect for them if they let Westbrook get traded because its really clear that he is not happy with Lakers anymore and their chemistry with his team is not good at the moment. Maybe from that trade they can get good guards to fill up his position and can blend well on their rotation. Also they need to get good wing players for them to get good spread then get great plays from their roosters.
1912  Economy / Gambling / Re: Roobet.com | Crypto’s Fastest Growing Casino 🦘 on: November 17, 2022, 10:07:31 AM
yes, that's quite big
maybe they're holding the announcement a little bit due to all the craziness of last week

I wonder if Roobet will end up picking other famous people as embassadors in the future
In brazilian football we're starting to see lots of betting platforms advertising
I think it's quite late for Roobet if they want to hire a brand ambassador for the world cup promotion since it's already 3 days before the first match will happen. Maybe Roobet only looking for UFC and boxing first since their mascot is kangaroo which is usually linked to martial art or boxing. It wouldn't be easy too for casino to hire a football player to become brand ambassador, I've remember there's a problem to the player when he promote gambling site, but I can't find the thread.

Not late for the fact that its still a world cup which many people around the world watch the league even though its quite late but this is still good addition if we talk about increasing awareness about their casino existence. If they really plan to do this then maybe they should execute this plan because for sure they can succeed with that especially if their logo will be attached on some teams jersey or even promoted by famous individual for sure their fans will look at it or even speculators who watch the game.
1913  Economy / Speculation / Re: What are the chances of FTX raising funds... on: November 16, 2022, 11:31:13 PM
If there’s a hype probably someone will invest.
If the purpose to raise funds is to compensate all the losses and stay in the competition then why not. This might not be so easy for them because of what happened, most probably there’s already a trust issue with them. The question is what if SBF committed another fraud? This might be double kill for FTX. Well, we will see if they will push it through.

How could they trust FTX? there financial status are really in bad shape where they have huge money needed to compensate to their millions of users. For sure investors most likely taking suicide for there money if they push this plan because let say even if they could raise funds from those private individual to pay there users the question there is are those people will go back to the platform to use their exchange? I think not they already get out with the problem and how could they came back on the platform where give them huge stress due to financial issues?
1914  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: 2023 NBA Season on: November 16, 2022, 09:47:09 PM
I’d be shocked if LeBron was ever included in a trade and I think the league would be hesitant to let LeBron and KD be on the same team together, but it’s fun to think about.
That's good to imagine but if there's really a possibility and the Nets would be willing to do that, after all of those trade offers that the Nets have made before the start of the season and no team has been willing to take their offer.
I doubt that this is going to happen when the Lakers are already on the verge of losing more this season and might be out for the play offs. We will see the development on these rumors if they're going to be for real.

I'm also not seeing the two playing together, I mean the possibility is there, but it will take a lot lot of players from Lakers, not only Davis, and for this to happen they need another team inserted into the picture.

Of course, we all dream of seeing them together, there are even interviews by Durant saying that Lebron is the greatest player for him recently. And this maybe fuel the rumors of the two trying to make that duo in the picture but I highly doubt it for now.
But whatever happens, we'll see how it's going to happen since there are too many rumors out there about trading AD. And why is it that most of those rumors are on him? LOL.
AD can give huge contribution to the team so most provably he is the one who want to have by a team that's why there are trade rumors always brought up on his name because unfortunately on lakers at the moment he has a clear value compare to Westbrook where many team avoid because of his bad performance show lately happen on him.

1915  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Rollbit took 100k from me... on: November 16, 2022, 11:18:40 AM
what about my loses during the trading? why are you guys not accounting that? I lost 10k during trading and you guys took all the profits but not talk about the loses? 

Then its part of consequences of the action you do because for sure you know that some rules are violated so this is reminder to anyone to play fair so that no issue will come when you want to withdraw your winnings. Follow always what is written in TOS and don't try to abuse anything on casino so that you can play smoothly.

You are the one who's to be blame for what you experience because if you didn't do abusive action for sure you can withdraw your potential winnings.

And I have successfully participated in various campaigns of 1xbit in the past, they have always paid me without any problems. I think they have been running a campaign for a long time now, they invest a huge amount of money in marketing, so they have enough money to pay gamblers and they have been in the gambling market for a long time.

We are not surprised if 1xbit participants will put some nice words to this casino since you guys are paid to make a post in behalf of them. Money spend in campaign is not indicate that they change there are still accusation float against them so no wonder that many people doesn't trust this casino. I guess many of us still not convince that 1xbit is a good casino because if you see majority still call them a scam.

I really don't know how certain you were about that fight but my question is,  what if the fight wasn't in your favour, would you been so proud and confident of the game ?
I'm glad you were able to admit that the 9000 win was by accident  but how accidental was it ?

Congratulations to you mate but are you sure you're quiting or taking a break from gambling because with this your win I'm not certain it will be easy for you to call it a quit.
I just hope you enjoy this festivity and have enough time and fun with family and friends
If you do look his post history then this guy had plans on spending his time with gambling until 2023 or up to this year end which means if he plans on quitting or taking a long break after this year then its up to him.

Just like the rest been saying that quitting on the said situation which its really impossible for you to consider out because you would be definitely be still that encouraged to play even more.

Its true that why quit if you could still be that positive or profitable the way you gamble? This would really be coming up mainly on your senses and this is why its
really hard to believe on until they have done it completely or done silently rather than on boasting it.

well, it depends on the person himself. if he does really want to quit, there's no need to tell it to everybody, but he will quit silently and be happy with it. quitting from this game should be on your own accord and done silently. you have your own motivations and you don't need others to agree with you about your change of lifestyle.

Some will post this because they are happy with their achievement and not all people can do this because majority will just decide to continue the game because they think they could win more. And its cool to read the same like this post since maybe other people will also get motivated to do the same since maybe quitting after winning will became trend since we might see another good stories rather than those people post some rants and accuse casino that they are scam while the fact they create their own mistake for hardcore or abusive playing.
1918  Economy / Economics / Re: Investing against 2024 on: November 15, 2022, 11:04:10 PM
I think it's wise to invest smartly against 2024, there is high tendency of hitting it big in crypto from next year to 2024. I advise you put reasonable capital on bitcoin and few funds in altcoin. Don't sleep on this one. It's a banga!! Let's make this money together.

To many speculation that there's good thing to happen so if you can take the risk then go with it invest while top alts are so cheap. Since the risk taker is the winner and I'm slowly picking up some alts to hold in preparation for next halving. Halving is good event so for sure after this all fuds happen including the big controversy of FTX will totally gone since it will replace by fuds brought up by the season.
1919  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [Boxing] Naoya Inoue vs Paul Butler - Undisputed Bantamweight Bout - December 13 on: November 15, 2022, 11:38:45 AM
Yes, they are siblings, and usually Japanese and Filipino boxers have their sort of rivalry in Southeast Asia. So I'm not surprised that they are willing to test the other Inoue against a Filipino here. Unfortunately, Bornea is a relatively unknown. But who knows, he can pull a surprise here. He has nothing to lose and everything to gain if he fight everything against Takuma and upset him in his brother card. And yes, news is that after he unified and win against Butler, he will move up to super bantam.

With hard work and determination also excellent coaching from his brother, he will surely improve when he will gonna first fight some boxers that are not really strong or capable of giving him hard time inside the ring because when you have the right trainers and the right skills with you, there are really have enough rooms for improvement and when he will gonna fight a Filipino boxer, he is one step to be able to cross every hard storm in his next fights and after a year or two without tasting any single lost, he will be given an opportunity to fight for a championship.
Yes, but it's different body and personality, you will have the best comparison, Manny and Bobby Pacquiao. It was Bobby who was in boxing early that Manny, but it was the younger Manny who become the best boxer of our generation. So it might be that they have the same last name. But it doesn't mean that they will have the same path in greatness in boxing. I will say that Naoya is much better than Takuma.


Naoya shows more huge potential than his brother so there's no question who is more stronger than them if there's comparison between them. But for sure there wasn't because both of them are sharing some good success between of there careers. But for now the name of Naoya is more dominating the scene because recently he show tremendous power and defeat some big names in the scene. Maybe in future we can see Naoya surpass the record of Pacquao or even Mayweather if he's still consistent with his records then will not record a serious injury.

Making use of the circumstance is Not bad, investing in bitcoin is not for the faint of heart. The best advice is to never sell, regardless of what happens. There is speculation that bitcoin will continue to decline, and the way things are going right now—with Luna crashing and other recent events—more is still to come, the game is still for the brave. This is just a re-occurrence is just another open window to accumulate as you can it will be a Big Bang in the future.

If you are faint hearted person then came into bitcoin without bringing up some good knowledge then for sure you lose your money here because volatility is fast and all movements is unpredictable. But if you try to get more knowledge and always base your trade on charts or anything which you can correlate on events you might have good weapon to earn here. People need to consider always learn new things everyday on trading because there are so many changes on bitcoin in daily basis.
