FTX issues has really giving crypto-Currency critics something to bite on. This damages are large to let go. I think there would be repercussions for this.
FTX exchange has also brought some lessons to many and that's never trust a centralized exchange, so much can go wrong, ignore how big they are even Binance, it still can happen to them. The dangers on centralized exchange and also the lack of security and privacy protection.
The FTX issues goes on I don't think it would take long before some government finds reason for sanctioning because of this issue.
FTX is not the first centralized exchange to crash, we had a large exchange that was Mt.gox and many other smaller exchanges also collapsed. Everyone is aware that leaving money on it is risky, but most still choose to leave money because to serve their work, hope everyone is more vigilant after the FTX incident. I don't think governments will punish FTX as most countries don't have crypto laws yet and FTX doesn't have a business registration in those countries. Investors will be responsible for their own consequences. How could you think FTX and his CEO Sam Bankman-Fried won't be sued and sentenced if they've made shady and scammy things with the funds of their users? It's a crime in my country as in most countries. When someone gives you custody of something, it doesn't belong to you, and it's your responsibility to take care of it, otherwise you have to repair it or to pay damages. You should remember that Bernard Madoff has been sentenced to 150 years in prison and he died in jail. |

After I started my Bitcoin holding journey a few months ago,
At that time, my close friend Sam! also have some capital he want to put away in cryptocurrency, and I advised him to buy Bitcoin instead of an altcoin. But instead of him to have a long-term potential mentality, he was looking for a quick profit so he filled up his portfolio with shitcoin, while I went in on a single portfolio of Bitcoin and when the unexpected of FTX hack happen the whole market in shamble and his altcoin portfolio have dropped above %800+ but my bitcoin holding still maintains some level of stability.
This gives me more confidence in Bitcoin and newbie who are looking for long-term holding should hold more bitcoin, in their private wallet to avoid exchange, but your knowledge to always have a good entry price.
His altcoin portfolio has dropped above %800+ you say? Don't you think you are exaggerating a little bit his loss actually? That would mean for $100 invested, he lost $800. I know that crypto market can be hard but it's not possible in reality. You can only lose 100% of your investment actually, when all your cryptos go to 0. Cryptos can't go below 0, you will never have to pay someone to get rid of it , because you will always be able to send them to a random address without asking anything to anyone. |

Update: DG7 has since offered me $5,000 USDT on the $131,000 USDT owed to me after they received the results of the provider reviews. At first they tried to say that the providers told them that there are too few players on the site for them to verify the wins, but after I pressed they essentially admitted that I won more than they bring in. Last I was told they needed to contact their "boss" and "investor" and ask them if they can help them pay it. Needless to say I am completely devastated, because I spent so much money with this site and finally hit big for the first time ever. That money would have done so much for me. Obviously the lesson here for everyone I guess is that the truth is no matter what site you play on, or what licenses they may have, or whatever - the fact is there's never a complete guarantee you'll get paid when you win.
On a completely different note, the number of replies here that were completely ridiculous and rude is unbelievable. How the hell could I be trying to scam anyone by sharing a story, not to mention one where I am sharing the fact that I wasn't paid out a win!? Um, okay!
Unfortunately many users here, don't gamble and don't care about gambling at all, they just make posts to fulfill quotas of posts in the Gambling section for their signature campaign. Most of times it's just boring as hell to have to scroll dozens of garbage messages but when they spam nasty BS on a serious case it hurts the whole community. So I think you should name them here. Unluckily your case is not uncommon. Because of the bearmarket bankrolls of most casinos has dropped, and nowadays they can't pay out anymore what they have to. But maybe you can ask them to pay you $2000 every month during 5 years. |

Stake has a couple of promotions for the world cup, but I am the only win that is a little bit disappointed in what they currently offer as promotions? It is not bad but nothing special also and not really anything that stands out or that is super interesting...
If you are looking for something that you can participate for free like world cup promotions by other casinos, yes Stake is behind those other casinos for the world cup promotion. Perhaps world cup is not one of the priority event for Stake to offer great promotion like what they used to offer for other events. I'm assuming that they will be focusing on Christmas and New Year, so lets hope they will offer something bigger than other casinos at the end of the year to replace your disappointment for the world cup promotion. I don't think he's only talking about free tournaments. If you look at what are offering their main competitors for the World Cup, Stake is behind them too. For example Stake is just offering a poor half-time leading insurance for WC matches, that is to say a simple refund (up to $250) of your bet if the team you've backed didn't win but managed to be ahead at the end of the first half-time when Sportsbet for example, is giving away $10 in free chips/spins without conditions for every $50 bets on many matches. That's weird, but they don't seem to be interested in attracting all soccer fans who will look for an interesting sportsbook to place some bets during the World Cup... But maybe they want to be more focus on slots and casino games nowadays. |

But now I'm curious, how many casinos out there can actually provide the funds in the unlikely event that all of their users decide to withdraw? Or how many casinos out there that are also secretly using their players' money for investment or marketing or something else?
I do not know if a serious casino would choose to do this, as it presents too much of a risk. While it may sound like the best of both worlds, in practice this could be a disaster for any casino that decides to take this path. Casinos have their core business, which is making money from gambling. Using player funds for investments in other ventures is not something they would normally do. However, if they did so, they would need to make sure the investment was safe and profitable. If the casino loses money on its investments, then it will not be able to pay players back their deposits. Therefore, I do not think that this is a very likely scenario, as it could result in the casino going bankrupt. Unfortunately in the crypto world, everything is possible. Exchanges and lending platforms have also their own core business model, but we have recently seen they are not all very honest and are doing shady transactions behind their customers' backs, so I wouldn't be surprised if some large casinos were doing this kind of things actually. Because they can easily lock funds of most of customers when they want by simply asking them KYC. So users should always be very careful when they leave cryptos anywhere, and remind that when you have not the key, it's not your coins anymore. |

I don’t understand exactly what’s the importance of determining whether the streamer is using real money or fake because it’s his personal deal to the casino and has no responsibility to disclose to us there deal just to satisfy our curiosity. There’s no benefits for us to pursue this curiosity since they probably have NDA before they become partnered streamer.
You enjoy his stream and that’s the most important thing. You don’t risk any money on the guy so just move on.
It's not a matter of curiosity, it's a matter of advertising a casino in a fake and misleading way. Young people and people who don't know gambling can think it's easy to win big amounts when they watch those streams, while it's very hard actually, and they could lose critical amount of money and even becoming addict by chasing those big wins. If streamers don't want to admit they are playing with sponsored money, they should at least recall the total money spent each time they get a big win. In a fair, honest and responsible spirit. |

Ah good that you mentioned about the small bet, I had no idea there were 0 points people in prize places lol. TY  Same here, I am surprised I got two $5 rewards from two consecutive weeks even though I ranked 58+ on the crypto crunch event. I never imagine that I will be reaping a $10 reward after I failed to reach the top 30 ranking of the previous 2 weeks of the crypto crunch promotion. Now I am more motivated to regularly participate in that event  . If I would have known this earlier of course I would have played a few hands. Seems to me only need to wager $2 or something to get the minimum point, that's easy, just put in on red/black and if you lose you have a net profit of $3, win and you get net $7 at end of tournament  Definitely think it's worth it to go for at least $20 based on experience, but only if you just wager same amount without trying to martingale (hehe). The roulette house edge is sort of returned from the loyalty rakeback but you really have to keep an eye on balance to not overdo the loss. The house edge of roulette games is covered by the Loyalty rakeback? For which ranks precisely? That would be a great news, because it would mean that rouette is a free to play game at Livecasino. I've never noticed it until now so I guess it's only working for the highest ranks of the loyalty rakeback program. |

No matter who the streamer is, it's always going to be hard to prove their legitimacy unless they outright admit that they are using a fill balance or something alike.
A lot of streamers are on deals where they are paid X amount weekly/monthly and are able to gamble with this as they choose to do so, and the winnings are fully withdrawable.
Some streamers are on deals where they are given infinite refills of money every X amount of minutes or whenever their balance reaches 0, these are the streamers that personally I don't understand how users can watch them as it is as far away from the reality of gambling as you can get.
Not speaking on specific people, I think the only transparency you can hope for with crypto casino streamers is they show you them depositing and withdrawing on stream or even publicising their deposit transaction id's which users can look at themselves, as well as also showing an organic growth in terms of their bet sizes.
When the bank roll is high they usually can't fully withdraw all their winnings unlike what you said, but only a percentage of them like 10%, someone has made a thread about the different deals offered by casinos to streamers. Being paid by a percentage on their winnings allows them to look super happy when they make some good winnings during their streams while letting them showing big amounts on their screen. |

Attendons lundi mais depuis quelques jours le btc semble pétrifié dans la glace ou plutôt dans les portefeuilles froids.  Bonne vanne. Mais si le prix ne descend pas plus bas, ca veut aussi dire qu'il y a un minimum d'acheteurs à ce prix-là, qui absorbent les ventes de ceux qui ont choisi de vendre plutôt que de retirer leurs fonds des exchanges. Pantera Capital en aurait notamment pris récemment une louche pour 140 millions de dollars. https://www.trustnodes.com/2022/11/19/pantera-buys-140-million-bitcoin |

It's interesting, you are planning to offer it in the Games & Rounds section to play against other users? How people would bet precisely? You should explain the rules more in details or make a small tutorial, if you want to attract people IMO because it's not very easy to understand how it will work in practice for poker newbies.
BTW is it ASCII or Unicode characters?

I do not see why it is necessary to implement a "paid" service for this, because it is free on Stake.com ...you simply open the high roller tab or all bets... find a bet that you like and click on it.... then add it to your own bet slip. I use this option when I am too lazy to pick my own bets... but it is risky. I think there are a lot of multi bets on there... that are simply created to milk people. The pro's know people "copy&paste" their bets, so they simply pick a lot of losing multi bets (the opposite of what they want to bet) and then their odds increase. (Just look in detail on what is combined in these multi bets.... impossible odds)  It's not the same thing, when you've spotted a good player/bettor you want to stick up with him, you don't want to try a different guy every day, you will most likely pick very bad guys frequently. Best ones have a rather short lifetime at this kind of casinos, because they get their account limited quickly. So I don't think it's a good strategy to pick betslips from random guys. At Blackjack, you can also "bet behind" other players, if you think they are good, if you try to bet behind any random guy with a high bank roll you'll quickly notice you're at loss and you will wonder if they are real players or ghosts from casinos trying to trap you. |

TheQuin I know I brought it up before but is there really no chance for the admin to consider Flash bonuses that are either longer durations, or made possible via activation, or sometimes in a different timezone? I saw I got another Flash bonus promo, this is like my 4th one already, probably because of my level of premium status? But it's always sent to me like when I'm asleep. Active for 6 hours. By the time I wake up and check email it's long gone. Seems like it's sent out during US timezone but I'm ready to bet most of the players at least active on this forum are not US people. The email actually shows active hours so the first 2 times I actually wagered a lot to try achieve the bonus but got nothing so even that needs to be fixed to stop misleading players. Only suggestions, as a loyal player. Not complaining I wasn't aware it was sent to only some members. I thought it was a promotion offered to everyone like the 2x RP promotion actually. Anyway it must be frustrating if you like this kind of bonuses (lottery tickets, WOF spins and RP) but I guess they are maybe activating it during their working hours in order to be able to monitor how it is doing and to fix eventual issues or abuses, if I'm right it could be hard for them to postpone it unfortunately. I hope they will find a solution for people of your time zone though. |

D'un point de vue purement psychologique... Où pensez-vous que nous nous situions ici :  La phase de peur est passée, je dirais qu'on est en fin de capitulation. Pour moi, il manque la phase "désespoir", c'est pourquoi je crois aussi que la chute pourrait se prolonger. Pour l'instant, les articles c'est "le bitcoin s'effondre", "comment va faire le Salvador ?", "75% des acheteurs sont perdants". Je veux lire du "le plus gros Ponzi de l'Histoire se termine", "les cryptos enfin interdites ?". Ah oui au fait, le président du Salvador annoncé que son pays allait acheter un bitcoin par jour. Facile à dire pour un vieux singe qui a déjà connu ce genre de crises, mais ceux qui ont débarqué en 2020 ou 2021 ne doivent pas voir les choses du même oeil que toi je pense et le désespoir ils doivent le sentir beaucoup plus durement si ils ont investi en achetant plusieurs BTC à $40 000 ou $50 000 en mode c'est le new paradigm justement. Donc on en est certainement pas loin si on y est pas déjà amha. |

Ca serait terrible ca voudrait dire que meme les hodlers, qui ont encaissé la chute de $50 000 (-75%) n'y croient plus et se résolvent à capituler.
Les hodlers se sont incliné devant la récente de chute de 20000 à 16500$. Pourquoi n'en feraient ils pas de même devant une nouvelle chute de 16500 à 13000$ ? Passer de 20 000 à 13 000 en quelques jours ou quelques semaines après avoir dévissé de près de $30 000 depuis le début de l'année, pour moi ca voudrait dire que Bitcoin est devenu un puit sans fond et qu'il vaut mieux tout vendre tout de suite. Je me trompe peut-être mais je continue de croire que l'on est sur une zone de gros support. Depuis le mois de juin de nouveaux entrants ont eu le temps d'arriver et ce sont généralement les derniers arrivés qui sont les premiers à partir donc cette baisse est peut-être la conséquence de l'envolée des moineaux(blanc-becs) qui sont arrivés à 20k. Maintenant on semble avoir trouvé une stabilité sur 16k et je pense que les chances de tomber sous 14k d'ici la fin de l'année sont faibles (moins de 40%). |

- En Ukraine, nous ne sommes pas à l'abri d'un début de négociation (il ya un certain nombre de signes qui vont dans ce sens)
J'ai entendu dire que Poutine comptait sur les températures négatives et la neige qui commence à tomber pour reprendre le dessus, en bombardant le réseau énergétique ukrainien notamment. Si c'est bien le cas, il risque de refuser tout compromis non favorable à la Russie avant le dégel comme on dit, à savoir le mois de mars. Mais bon je n'exclus pas une nouvelle forte baisse à cause des dominos qui continuent à tomber en ce moment.  Ca serait terrible ca voudrait dire que meme les hodlers, qui ont encaissé la chute de $50 000 (-75%) n'y croient plus et se résolvent à capituler. |
