Bitcoin is acceptable in United States but not a legal tender. The only two countries that bitcoin is a legal tender are El Salvador and Central Africa Republic. Also accepted on an island in Honduras.

Bitcoin do not have to be a legal tender before you can spend it, not a legal tender in my country, but I have used it to make few transactions, especially with friends.

Bitcoin is neither a company nor a business, it has a logo but it has no motto. Bitcoin logo is enough, or it isn't? The logo that indicates bitcoin is enough.

Playing thru an application is way way better but there are more maintenance that are happening than a website based gambling site.
Browser based thru the use of Chrome and Firefox are damned hard to control. I don't really like it and most of the time I get the wrong pick because of the smaller letters and numbers that is shown.
While thru an application, it is meant to be created so that it can be user-friendly and gambler won't make mistakes.
Overall, I'd still prefer using my desktop and will only choose using my smartphone when I cannot get my hands on it.
People will prefer the desktop or laptop because it is the best to bring out the good design of a gambling websites, but there are times only our phone will be available to us, which means phones are more accessible and more available and we can carry phone about to everywhere we are going.

Are you serious that you see better on app than browser? That has never been a problem for me, I see better in both app and browsers. I see none to be difficult for gambling for me.
2024  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Reason for bitcoin on: February 22, 2023, 08:10:53 AM
Question: Does bitcoin has year or reason when it drops or crash on like what happened in 2022 alot of us saw hell.so I want to if has reason for the dropping in volume.
Bitcoin halves in approximately every 4 years.

The first year after halving, bull run
The second year, bull run
The third year, a very significant bear market
Fourth year, bull and bear market.

That is how it has been working, but some people are saying this may fail later, but it has not yet failed.
2025  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Do Gamblers Do This? on: February 22, 2023, 07:09:32 AM
To be honest, I don't feel respect for people who write bitter stories that they experienced because they lost at gambling, the reason they lost at gambling was due to a lack of emotional control and also they were quite greedy but accused as if gambling was what made them lose and they were victims of gambling atrocities.
It is a good thing for people to write about how they lost in gambling or anything, that is how others can know how risky a business or something like gambling or trading is. If people are losing but leaving others not to learn from them, it will not be good. That makes me respect people that lose in gambling and tell others about their experience of addiction and also telling people what to avoid.

Sometimes it is not lack of emotional control, there are some people that will lose and stop playing, gamble again next time and lose. But they have one thing in common, they are using huge amount of money to gamble.
2026  Economy / Economics / Re: Are people really having the wrong concept of savings? on: February 22, 2023, 07:00:46 AM
Saving is something that goes in a place where you can't access it. The reason why most of us end up spending our savings is because we keep them in our bank accounts, which are under our direct access anytime we want.
The best way to save your money is to lock them in your bank (saving accounts) for a specific period. Saving is a habit that must be developed from your childhood and parents have to play there part to teach there kids about this habit.
I really surprised how can someone who hold Bitcoin can say this? are you lend or lock your Bitcoin to centralized platform in order to make you don't have full control over your coins? because you will cashout your Bitcoin if you hold it on your non custodial wallet where you have full control.

You need to take a look with recent FTX bankruptcy, it's the best reason why you shouldn't trust any centralized platform and even it's really popular, there's still a chance your money will gone.

I do not seem to get what you are saying, he is talking about bank but you are talking about centralized exchanges, banks are centralized too but they are not the same as exchanges because all of us use bank. People have different means of savings, but he go with the opinion that people should have fixed deposit in a way the money will not be accessible for sometimes so that he will not be able to spend it, there is nothing like centralized exchange or coins that he talked about.
2027  Economy / Economics / Re: Are people really having the wrong concept of savings? on: February 21, 2023, 01:10:05 PM
Well, those who see savings as money kept and should be touched are probably confusing savings with investment, this are two different things, money can be invested as well as saved, money invested i think should be touched until the goal to which the money was invested for, is reached, but on the other hand, money that is saved is saved to be spent later in the near future, those who feel bad when they spend money they saved probably don't understand the meaning of saving, like I said earlier
There is nothing like money investment in that way, you can invest in coins like bitcoin, you can invest in gold, properties like real estate, you can not invest in money unless you are making profit from it. The money that you invest on today that continue to decrease in value all the time, is that one investment? To people it is not investment, you just save money. If you want to invest in money, it will be in a way that you will save certain amount in fixed amount for a period of time to be yielding profit, that is not even investment if the value decrease more than the money gained from the investment.
2028  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Why Do Gamblers Do This? on: February 21, 2023, 08:22:53 AM
Because if these people was realized it and prevent from huge losses, they wouldn't create that thread. The funny thing is why there are a lot people share their loss story and there's no one share their huge winnings, I don't think any gambler wouldn't ever hit huge multiplier or win big amount money, even though their losses might be bigger than their winnings. It just make the gambling society looks bad, while it's actually not.
For people that have lost so much, know that they are losing, not winning. Can someone that lost so much share his winning when he has more losses than winnings? I want you to also know that there are some people on this forum that share their winnings too, especially those that won huge, I have seen many of thise winning posts on this forum since when I joined. Know that this gambling boards is for us to know more about gambling, one of the things we know are the experiences of people when they are gambling and how to avoid the bad ones.

It is not too later to invest in bitcoin. They are getting something wrong because the price increase, they want to rush in, that is one of the ways they may later fomo and invest at the wrong time in the future. They need to learn, you need to teach them, especially about the risk so that they will not blame you what you do not deserve, because at the end, it would be a big gain for them if they can be patient.

They may invest now and the price of bitcoin drop to $23000 or  $21000, it is possible. You need to educate them and how it is possible that bitcoin will reach over $50000 again, which may be this year or next year. Let them know that they may invest and begin to lose, but they should not panic but be happy and wait for what will happen if they have long term investment plan in mind and if they go for it.
2031  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Give it a break. on: February 20, 2023, 09:09:26 PM
Having a break in whatever thing that we do is important. It enables us to discipline ourselves and to have a rethink of our mistakes. Gambling is the same,since we gamble for fun and not for profit, if you begin to observe that your emotions is controlling your gambling activities, a break is needed,so that you don't get carried away with it.
People suppose to be gambling for fun and not for profit, but in real life, some people want to make profit from gambling and they are gambling for no two reasons but for profit. Either for fun or profit, people should not see it as a way of making money because that is one of the bad aspect of gambling. Either for the fun or profit, it is good to always have budget and not going beyond it. Also if losing already, that signals already that you should stop gambling for that day.
2032  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which is currently the best crypto to invest in? on: February 20, 2023, 04:42:12 PM
I will advice you to invest in bitcoin. Do not be disappointed if you invest and you see any decrement, you should not sell but continue to invest. We all still know that it is definitely coming that bitcoin will reach a very high price again.

If you want to invest on altcoins, you need to be careful because many of them have increased this time, any little fall on bitcoin will be a great fall on altcoins. Do more reach if you want to invest on altcoins, but I will advice you to invest in bitcoin.
2033  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 20, 2023, 09:55:46 AM
The shift in standings will continue towards the end of the season as far as I remember this is the third time changes in the standings
What has remained consistent are Arsenal and Manchester City so for Manchester United I don't think they are safe in 3rd place yet
My attention is also on Nescastle, I wonder where they will finish , if I had to choose the best team in the Premier League then I would have Newcastle.
Newcastle for what reason to be the best club in premier league? Any club in the first 4 on the table are good as they have played 23/24 matches. Manchester United is also good, not only Arsenal and Manchester City. Manchester City with 52 points while Manchester United with 49 points, that is very close gap. Manchester United is a threat that can still climb the table further if care is not taking by Manchester City or even Arsenal.

2035  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2022/2023 on: February 19, 2023, 12:03:30 PM
I can't trust Chelsea too much. They draw for 3 matches in a row. Southampton is in last place and they need every point they can get.
In Stamford Bridge, Chelsea later suffered loss to Southampton, the least on the relegation zone, the least on the table. Chelsea has gone so bad.

Arsenal looked pressured when they were 2-1 down in yesterday's match, but in the second half they performed better and were able to win the game with a convincing score and Arsenal's third and fourth goals as the winning goals were the result of a mistake by the Aston Villa keeper and Arsenal again benefited because City only drew with Nottingham Forest how disappointing the result was for City, and the results of yesterday's match at least returned Arsenal hope for the tittle.
Arsenal won and take over the position that Manchester City took form them with goals last week, but they are not still impressing me, I expect Arsenal to win cleanly in a way that no draw after 90 minutes of play. It was after 90 minutes, during extra time that the goals were score. Arsenal tried but I wish more of their best.
2036  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: Mortal Kombat ransomware forms tag team with crypto-stealing malware on: February 19, 2023, 11:55:44 AM
I Always avoid scam emails and double-check after copying any important text or wallet. This is a serious issue. How can a virus replace a wallet address from the clipboard, and how does it know that the user will send bitcoin?
Know that viruses are one of the types of malware, but malware are many. Viruses even only causes damage to devices and it also makes devices to function abnormally. But the malware that are used as clipboard malware are more related to trojan.

You are talking about clipboard malware. I too do not really know how it replaced original address to a fake one, but you can read a little more about it on the link that I provided above. The main thing is that we should avoid it as we know what the malware are capable of and how to avoid the malware.
2037  Economy / Exchanges / Re: why this wallet address is not showing ? on: February 18, 2023, 06:32:41 PM
On mobile, click on 'wallet', then click on 'spot'. You will see a symbol like a paper and a clock on it, click on it to take you to deposit and withdrawal. Click on the transaction that you want to check, you will see what you are looking for.

On desktop, click on 'all', click on 'wallet', then click on 'fiat and spot (deposit and withdrawal). From there, you will be able to see what you are looking for.

2039  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Betting strategy question on: February 17, 2023, 07:02:22 AM
Betting is something not 100% sure no matter how small or big the odds are , so Betting on any platform involves winning or loosing, so the question is how do you place your bet in other not to incure plenty risk because the more the risk the less the chance of winning that particular bet,
Like a friend once told me on sport Betting don't bet your favourite team, dot put money on your favourite team if you know they can't win,
Bet the stronger team that has more chance of winning and don't accumulate plenty games or events on the bet.


But when you bet the stronger team, the chances of you winning big reduces and when you check the risk ratio between losing your money or winning the bet I don't think it's not worth it as for you to win big with the strongest team you have to put a larger sum of money compared to when you choose the weakest team.
Did you know what is called the house edge in casino, it is also existing in sport gambling and that is what you have just explained. No matter what, the gambling odds are set by the gambling sites and they are set it in a way to favour the themselves ( the gambling) site than the gamblers. Strong team with low odds, weak teams with high odds. As people are betting, they will only be realizing that they lose money than win if they bet frequently, but they may win more matches, not money. This is one of the things that can start addiction because the gambler will think he is good and he should risk more  money to have more chance of winning.

After a long time, Manchester City managed to climb to the top of the points table. They will not want to give up the top spot in the points table now. Guardiola will do his best to retain the top spot on the table. Manchester City will play against Nottingham City and Bournemouth in the next two matches. And Manchester City will win easily in both of these matches. On the other hand, City's main rivals Arsenal will face Aston Villa and Leicester City in their next two matches. And these two opponents are strong enough for Arsenal now. Arsenal is likely to drop points. Now it seems that Manchester City's chances of becoming champions are increasing day by day.
I too think that Manchester City would find it easy to win both Nottingam Forest and Bournemouth, but those two clubs should not be a tough game for Arsenal too. If you check history, even when Leicester City was able to win the premier league and not won by almost all the clubs in premier league, Arsenal still won the club, Arsenal has been one of the clubs during that time till now that do win Leicester city easily. As for Aston Villa, I do not know what the match would be, but I still go for Arsenal as well.
