Numerous bad news and developments unfolded this past week, mainly impacting privacy and decentralization. The recent crackdown by United States authorities on well known mixers has serious implications for users and even businesses or projects. Mixers were originally designed to keep users anonymity, and the current situation appears to be so harming for both sides and a slap for bitcoin users as well.
The worse news, is mixers will no longer be allowed in Bitcointalk for any kind of promotions or even discussions. Along with the risk of getting banned because of that means ; Mixers are dead here in BTT.
Now, you may be wondering about the connection between mixers related issues and casinos. The thing lies in casinos capability to facilitate untraceable transactions, enabling scenarios like depositing and withdrawing without a trace, potentially leading to money laundering.
The important question here: how will casinos respond to this new landscape, and what measures will they take and implement to face the challenges posed by recent developments? Probably many users will join casinos for an alternative of mixer.
We know that casinos are being treated as a mixer by other people and it's been that way since then. Casinos try to strengthen their casino by doing some anti money laundering tactics like wager rules and implementing strict KYC to gamblers. Maybe we will see people who will still try to use casino with the purpose of mixing coins and hoping they can successfully wash it. Casinos who has loose rules on money laundering is I think the one who will get customers who will basically want to wash their cryptos. It's just sad that mixers are being taken down one by one, casino would need to strengthen their rules for them to show people that they are not an alternative of mixers. |

for sure that there will be other groups that may cooperate and coordinate to your team but Casino houses? I'm afraid that they will ever have any interest in doing such because Addiction is their target, addiction is their weapon, addiction is what made them rich and will make them more richer. I did not say that to attach casinos but I am telling what for me is real , because each gambling addict is their milking cow and who's farmer that will let their cow's gone? Yeah that's the reason we can't expect to much on them especially on having a partnership on some certain group that tackle up gambling addiction and help those people affected. They create this business for them to earn a profit and not for doing any charity work for any organization or certain individual. So its really up for the person or people around him on how they can aid up this addiction since this is really a serious matter for a person. But I guess there are separate groups can help people who's suffering gambling addiction so maybe the person affect could present theirself to seek for help and get aid also for people in this forum maybe they could try the service offered on the site mention then see if there's changes happened of we can get a help from these people regarding on what we are or those gamblng addict facing. It is a personal funded project and I think it will be hard for them to stay for long even if they are keeping their cost low. According to their website, their primary income is to sell backlinks to their customers which is I think a result a having partnerships with casinos and other organization. The intention of this casino is good but it would be lucky for them if a big casino intends to make a partnership with them which still haven't realized yet. If this is primary a business, I don't think that this will make the owner rich but if this is somehow a charity that primary wants to help gamblers to quit or rehabilitate them, I think they would last long if they somehow get support from their target clients. |

If you work as a staff member in a physical casino as a dealer or in a sports bookie, I know that there are subtle ways you can use to encourage responsible gambling that will not go against the terms and conditions for staff.
For example, suppose you encounter a gambler who has wagered $200 at the table and is currently winning $6k. Would you express to them, "Hey, you're up $6k, and you initially entered this table with $200. Walk away, Take your winnings, go!" or will you say, "It is very admirable to know when to stop"?
What will you say within your limits to encourage responsible gambling?
Casinos have their own set of rules and I think majority of the casino wouldn't like to have a staff that is acting like this. If you are the owner of the casino, would you like to have a staff that is attempting to make the a winning gambler run away? Even if the staff don't go against the rules, I'm pretty sure that if the owner noticed his/her action, the staff would face consequences or worst losing the job. I'm sure that staffs knows what's the nature of their work is. They don't work their to be a savior of winning/losing gamblers, they are all their to get what they want which is money. I also think casino staffs who receives tips like dealers from winning players wouldn't want winning players to leave the casino, the more they win is the more tips dealer can make from the player. |

Gambling, as an activity does have its fair share in the behavioral change of an individual. That’s if you allow it to have such an effect.
I think It’s only human nature to be happy when the good times comes rolling and quite sad and annoyed when it’s not so rosy anymore. That’s fine and expected. What isn’t expected or fine is taking out your annoyance on someone else(your family). This happens when you allow your emotions overwhelm you. We’re human and have/feel emotions whether you like it or not. It’s left for us to decide how best to show/channel such emotions.
You(OP) should get some help. You said it yourself that you’re addicted. If you want to keep your family happy and together, get some help that would help you quit your addiction.
I also think that it is normal, I believe that everything you are doing has an effect to you especially if it is something that you are really into it. There are people who tend to have a fluctuation in their emotion when they are currently doing gambling, these kind of people are the one I think can possibly have a massive behavioral changes after they had done gambling. The behavioral changes would depend on the capacity of the gambler but one thing is for sure, you giving a hard time to the people around you just because of the gambling vices you have is definitely not OK. The behavioral changes differs to gamblers, there are some who show low self-esteem, aggressiveness, generous, joyful, it depends on the gambler and the result of the gambling session that they have. The only thing that makes it bad is when it can negatively affect us or others when things go bad. |

I'm a 19-year-old boy living in South Korea and now btt, doge, shiba inu, etc.. have skyrocketed in just a few hours on our country exchange 'upbit'. A little fomo is coming. I can't believe it's gone up more than a months I've invested in bitcoin. I personally don't want to invest in other coins, as I think bitcoin is superior.
What kind of mindset should I have to stay in Bitcoin? And I think Bitcoin is about to hit the highest price ever, so how should I plan my dca strategy?
Stop using your emotion because it can ruin your plan. Don't let FOMO get into you, majority of the people who get FOMOed doesn't end well. If you know that you have a good plan, try checking it back and have a confidence on the plan that you yourself had built. Focus, everything is just a distractions. I myself had been caught on bad situations many times because I failed to execute my plans because of damn emotions, being fomoed by pumps and hype, I ended up losing money and possible profits if I execute my plan well. Remember mindset you have when the first time that you want to buy bitcoin. |

This shows how his comments and opinions don't really affects the market even if he/his company is well known in the finance industry. Those who believe him would probably has a regret in not buying some bitcoin. With this chart, the market or his followers will just invalidate his opinion about bitcoin. His comments don't make sense at all and didn't even touched the reality. With all the negativity that Jamie Dimon showed on bitcoin over the years, I wonder if he is doing this with the intent of plummeting the price to accumulate and buy some. We don't know, but he might be a bitcoin whale or some sort or just showing that he is anti-bitcoin just to evade the possible taxes he might face with the government. Just my speculative thoughts. |

So I read a thread by a new member who was asking if the information that is being shared here is just theoretical to gaining relevance in the platform or is something that is actually being practiced in real life situation and the first thing that came to my mind is the numerous post about securing ones Bitcoin holding and the fact that some persons might be taking it for granted.
The truth is that people actually loose access to their private keys and will loose their bitcoin In the process and a lost bitcoin isn't even a disadvantage to the network but actually increase the value of bitcoin in circulation and so if you take all the security measures being shared in the platform for granted, you're putting yourself at a serious disadvantage because if you loose your bitcoin due to your carelessness, it's your loss and not that of bitcoin and I doubt their is a means you can use in recovering a lost Bitcoin without your private keys.
The one owning bitcoin is educated enough to learn more about bitcoin. People should stop investing blindly into different assets. Everyone should know what they are doing and what they are holding. Owning bitcoin comes with the responsibility of holding it securely. People should know that losing the keys mean losing the coins. If they lose their coins then it's their fault. Bitcoin's value will only keep increasing as more people keep losing their coins thus reducing the bitcoin circulating supply. The reality is there are so many people who invested on bitcoin that don't really have any idea what is a non-custodial wallet. We can see people who just want to gain profits on bitcoin that's why they invested in it without any deep idea how to secure their assets, we can typically find them during the bull market where everyone flocks into buying assets and just store it into their favorite exchange until they can sell it for a profit. It is what I observed last bull market where everyone was blinded about the potential profit they can make on bitcoin and they just rush/blind buy it for their reason. Some of them just don't think that their asset is vulnerable or they can lose it. It's true that it will be solely our fault if we lose our bitcoin, though there are people who are careless enough to not care about it since they don't have any idea how vulnerable they are. |

I am a government servant, working in regional land office. At the end of five years of my working life, I have spent part of the salary I received during these five years for family and saved part for future. I have been saving my money in the bank for more than five years for the purpose of saving for the future and purchasing a land. If I were to mention the amount of money I saved in five years, it would be about 11 thousand dollars if converted to US dollars. My plan was to buy a land with this amount of money but whenever looking for land to buy land my idea completely changes because the lands I like will not give me this amount of money. If I can't buy land in a position, I have no desire to buy land in a common place.
Since I have like 11 thousand dollars right now, I want to invest this amount in Bitcoin instead of keeping it in the bank. I know about investing in bitcoins and I know that there are risks involved, I am investing in the potential to grow money but I want to invest in bitcoins with the understanding that my money may go down due to market volatility. I decided to withdraw the money from the bank at the beginning of the new year and plan to invest the money in bitcoins. Now that I can't buy land, I will definitely hold this investment for a long time so that I get good returns at the end of the long term and I can also accumulate some more money through employment.
At the time I planned it I felt I should have planned it earlier.
You are making good decisions at this point, but in my opinion, you should have made this decision much earlier. The price of bitcoin is currently high, so I don't think it's a good idea for you to purchase it at this point when it's over $40k Instead, you would have take this decision when the price was still under $30k Although you've saved money for a good five years, I believe you should wait longer if you can't afford to buy now. I know that some people can still invest and take risks regardless of the price. Because of the current price, I will not encourage anyone to buy bitcoin at this point. however, I will suggest that you should use half of your money to buy land, use the other half to begin your journey into investment. We have different perspective on where bitcoin price can go, it is speculative if bitcoin can go down to 30k again assuming that it is before the bull market. I myself believe that we can go that price point but I think that OP wouldn't want to miss the chance for him to invest in such price given that he is aware and has a knowledge about the risk of investing into cryptocurrency. If bitcoin go up more than 40k, the difference would only be the profit potential that OP can get but overall, I also think it's a good move investing in bitcoin even with the entry price he choose. Dollar cost averaging would be also good strategy but again OP bought the bitcoin already and it will hardly depend on him if he will follow the advices we posted in his thread. |

The only way this coin holds a chance of "making it" is by tricking other people into thinking Elon is somehow affiliated with it. He's not and he never will be. Also, 1 wallet holds almost 50% of this coin's supply, and as this is a Proof of Stake coin, they have a massively unfair advantage when it comes to staking. https://explorer.eloncoin.org/richlistThis coin isn't even a joke, its a shitty get-rich-quick scheme. I would say it borders on scam territory but the truth is hundreds of coins are also like this, so its been normalized as an OK thing to do. Oh wowow, 50%!!! That's crazy especially for a proof of stake! That's a major red flag that you should follow your guts into not spend money on it. You had pointed out many key points to not spend money on it and I think all of this are valid since even elon hasn't recognized this or maybe not even noticed it. I started noticing this coin lately since there a bunch of members here who are wearing the signature of this eloncoin and my curiosity is being triggered but I didn't try to visit their ANN thread given that I know what am I gonna expect. |

Bull markets and bear markets for altcoins depend on Bitcoin. This can be seen from previous data, when Bitcoin is in a bull market, all altcoins are bullish, and when the Bitcoin market is bearish, altcoins are also bearish and can even fall sharply. Bitcoin dominance is also often used as a benchmark as a sign of Altcoin movements. Altcoins will be very volatile if Bitcoin experiences price declines and increases. In general, the bearish and bullish altcoin seasons follow the Bitcoin cycle.
As far as I remember from the 2016-2017 pre bull market it is quite different, when bitcoin gone high, altcoins will go down since traders are transferring their altcoins into bitcoin and it is happening vice versa when bitcoin dumps, altcoins pumps. It is different last bull market where bitcoin is the lead on where can the altcoin can go. My take is it is hard to expect the same thing again since it is not consistent and it has a chance to not be on the expected pattern. |

Malaking tulong kung alam ng bawat kababayan natin ang tamang oras para bumili at magbenta ng cryptocurrency. Kung hindi, ang diskarte na gusto mong gawin ay hindi papansinin. Baka mamaya magbenta ka, tapos tataas pa ang market price.
Pero kung mabibili mo ito sa pinakamababang presyo at pangmatagalan, masasabi kong panalo kapag nangyari iyon dahil siguradong malaki ang babalik nito kapag biglang tumaas in the future, at ang savings na babalik sayo dito malaki din. tama ba?
To be honest mahirap talaga makuha yung pinaka mababang presyo at ma predict if tataas pa ang market price ng token. May charts tayong sinusunod as a guide pero alam ko na alam din ng mga traders na hindi lahat ng potentials is nag mamaterialize, it's just a guide pero it's better padin na may guide kesa wala. Just make sure to do risk management, hindi sobrang basic yung crypto market, kahit maraming yumayaman dito ay maraming ring nalulugi. Wag maging kampante kasi yun yung isa sa mga naging mali ko last bull market. |

Nakita ko nga yang post na yan pero hindi pa complete details at ang daming nagsasabi na babalik na kaya yung "Good day, manager!".
Natawa lang ako pero dahil mas gusto naman talaga ng tao ang V2 o classic dahil mas user friendly siya hindi tulad ng origins nila. Para sa akin, ganyan ang gawin nila para buhayin ulit nila ang community nila dahil on timing talaga sila at mukhang planado naman ang lahat dahil paparating na ang bull run. Basta tumaas lang ulit value ng mga tokens nila, magda-dump na ako diyan tapos benta na din ng axie. Parang yan din pampataas ng value ng axie kung magkakaroon ng levels. Ang dami nilang ebas sa mga integration, mini games etc, pero ang totoong attention lang ng mga tao ay nasa classic.
ayan nga din ang sinabi sa post ng bitpinas na balik "good day manager" na nga daw ba ang karamihan sa atin. Hindi pa ganun ka-kumpleto ang impormasyon pero nakita ko karamihan ng mga axie groups sa fb mukhang nahype talaga at ang daming nabuhay sa post. Nagsisimula na magbilihan ang ilan ng axie. Yun na nga e, patuloy lang nila bigyan ng bagong update ang laro nila, at wag nila pabayaan nalang na maging walang kwenta. Pero hindi ko na ineexpect na tataas ang price ng token nila, unli supply kasi e. Sobrang labo na tumaas niyan. Antayin pa natin ulit mga announcements nila, mukhang pa hype ulit sila.  Si Jihoz ata parang naging active ulit sa pagpopost dahil nga pa bull run na ulit. At yung isang post na nakita ko ay sinasabi niyang investor sa Axie yung CEO ng Roblox. Madami naman din sila talagang mga investor mula sa mga kilalang company at sinabin naman na nila dati yan. Sana nga ipambili nila ng maraming Axies, SLP, AXS, RON yung pondo na sinasabi nila dati para magkaroon ulit ng pera sa ekonomiya ni Axie. Yun lang naman din ang kailangan diyan para magkaroon ulit ng pump at demand, pero mukhang di naman nila gagawin yan at pure pa hype lang. Umaaksyon na pala sila. Let's hope na gumawa sila ng paraan para mabuhay ulit economy ng axie at maging interested yung mga tao para bumalik at mag laro. Need nila maging relevant para sa upcoming bull run kaya need nila mag labas ng bagong makakahikayat sa mga new players at even old investors para bumalik sa axie. If maging relevant padin sila sa next bull market is pwedeng hindi na sila yung maging top 1 pero umaasa padin ako since personally may mga axie infinity assets ako na gusto ko na din iliquidate. Lahat naman siguro tayo na may axie padin sa wallets natin is gusto na natin iliquidate or magkaprofit with in that. |

The coin that was launched just before Bitcoin hit 37k was MEME. This coin got listed on Binance and saw a good pump and now everyone is booking profit. I feel it will again make a come back when Bitcoin goes full throttle. Another coin that maing everyone mad in the Bitcoin community including.me is ORDI. It was listed recently on Binance and is continuously getting pumped. It started from $10 and now is trading on $21. This is another project to look into when the bull run makes a comeback.
For me, Pepe is a good project we don't have to miss because it has a very good team and good liquidity. Although the project had been passing through it hardest time for a while now and I know that soon it will come back fully to life again. There are good meme projects in the market and I hope more will be launched soon since there are many crypto projects that are waiting for the bull market to commence before it got launched. We just have to scrutinize the altcoins market and purchase good coins that we can hold for a very long time because the bull market is going to be long and a lot is going to happen. Pepe and other meme projects are good for holding. It depends on how you see. There are so much issues and drama on pepe, I was discourage in putting my money and also too late for the profits. Meme coin is different in my opinion as the full potential of it hasn't been realized yet, I'm putting some dollars of it and forget it until I can hear a news about it. It's the only MEME was the only meme coin I bought this bear market, I'm personally having a high hopes since this is a 9gag token and a gamble for me because I don't really like the majority of meme coins but yeah, I'm hoping to make some profit out of it. |

A massive numbers had been made, thousands of it claims to be bitcoin or seen as a bitcoin killer but as of now there's really no altcoin can beat bitcoin. I don't see people willing to give up their bitcoin just to make another altcoin that has a potential to beat bitcoin. Bitcoin is the legacy of cryptocurrency, many believe that it will last before their lifetime ends. Technology wise, sure! there are many altcoin that is better than bitcoin but bitcoin is number one for many reasons and I don't think it's wise to oppose it especially if we want to make good profits from it.

One is that we should not expect a number that is too high compared to what is happening and should be satisfied with what we get. Second: we should set a specific goal and only sell bitcoin when we reach the goal, and of course, we should not set a specific time for our goal. Because we all know that no one can predict the future and we are no exception. My goal and plan is that I will only sell when bitcoin reaches my goal and I am willing to wait until the 2030 bull season if this bull season fails to reach my goal.
I still feel that when talking about speculation, such things are not prohibited but don't make it too much as if it is exaggerated because such things are also not very good especially when spoken by an influencer or someone who has time behind him because even if it is just speculation and we as people who understand must know such things but not all will consider it just speculation especially new people who in the end this gives the wrong understanding to their followers which in fact this will be the forerunner that bitcoin will look bad because the expectations are higher than our thoughts who should realize the process is not that fast. I don't prohibit anyone in this case when they want to comment on bitcoin and price speculation because it is a situation they create themselves but it would be great if indeed our rationality is also given especially to those who do have a large following. I remember the days where those influencers are hyping things on bitcoin and really pushing it to reach $100k before the bear market starts. I can say that there's a chance but realistically speaking, the market isn't ready yet. People end up buying more and more because of the false hope that those influencers spread last bull market. I don't really like the influencer thing last bull market since there are so so so many influencers that has a crazy speculation especially in the altcoin and NFT markets where I can foresee that they are paid to speculate the price to an extent that it is not achievable. It's the same on bitcoin, we only experienced few bull markets and we still don't know where would all this price speculations can go. I hope that the speculations we have is closer to reality given that we all might disappoint ourselves, I personally think it's better to underestimate bitcoin because it really hypes me up when it exceeded my price expectation. |

Gambling has nothing to do with age, as long as people can do it responsibly, no one need to retire at any age. Some old people may need recreational entertainment like gambling while they are also socializing with others. It happens in my place, there are still many old men (above 60 even 70) who like to gamble in some special moment/event. Of course I believe they do not do it for money, they just want to gamble and having fun with some other people. My grandfather (87 years old) is still gambling some time when he wants. I asked him why he does it, he answered like "just for fun and nostalgic".
It has nothing to do with age, but most elderly people cannot restrain themselves from having fun and can overdo it so it is feared that they will not be able to be responsible because of the pleasure they get from gambling. In fact, elderly people can look for other recreational activities or entertainment instead of gambling, where there is no risk of losing too much money. And most elderly people will say, "just for fun and nostalgia," and that's true. Yes, it will be up to each person, but it would be better for elderly people to be directed to other things that are safer for them. It all depends on the gambler. There are people who quits gambling because they can find no sense or enjoyment in having gambling activities or some quit for good but yeah, it's nothing to do with age unless the gambler is underage of course. Elderly can be out of control sometimes but if the elderly gambler built a habit of controlling himself on what to spend, generally speaking he learned how to responsible in gambling, I think it is safe to assume that even if he is an elderly, he can still do gamble responsible since he carry out the habit of controlling himself. Sooner or later, we all will find the nostalgic feelings on gambling when we reached the age of an elderly. |
