"Feeding" mode is just a theory at this stage. We suspect that the RTP of the original games are slightly altered before or after money are spend by the Stake marketing team to fund these promotions. (So they UP it a little bit to take back the funds they spend)

Now, this is not just done by Stake, because we find this at other casinos with original games too... so I guess this is a "balancing" of the books by the casinos.

Let's make this clear.... casinos are free to do this, but they cannot say they have a fixed House Edge of 1.00% (displayed by the site) but they continuously change that without altering the displayed house edge and showing it to the players.

Well, about a Week ago I started a thread there to determine if people want these Bonus drops with a sucky RTP or if they just want a normal RTP on original games without the "feeding" mode turned on..... and it was deleted. (I started a Poll on Strawpoll to see what people want)

Now, it can be one of two things....

1. They did not want people to know that "feeding" mode is turned on during Bonus drops. (Which is perfectly legal, as long as you show the correct RTP being used)

or

2. They do not agree with me that "feeding" mode is turned on during Bonus Drops. (I base my observation on tests that has been done by myself and 50+ of my friends that help me test this... we discuss this in our own WhatsApp Stake Group)

I think it would have been better, if a Mod just replied to the thread and then denied that the RTP are altered during Bonus drop periods. (They could then just closed the thread)  

In any way.... my experience with Stake has been very good, so things like this does not influence me to not play there. They do a lot other things correctly, so I forgive them...  

Web3 holds the promise of allowing people to own things digitally, easily transact online, and have more control of their personal data. Blockchain and crypto ecosystems already have working products for Web3. For example, users can make peer-to-peer (P2P) payments and collect digital items with crypto wallets. Source : https://academy.binance.com/en/articles/what-s-the-relationship-between-blockchain-and-web3

I think the casino industry are trying to define their own version of Web3 to make a distinction between the KYC and non-KYC casinos as a type of branding and marketing gimmick.     

Well, the only way to eat an elephant... is to take it piece by piece ....right.  They have found a new way to f#$k the smaller Exchanges, much like the hostile takeovers that are done by Corporate giants.

I predict that we might see a lot more of these moves being done by the larger fish. (rug pull) 

In any way.... this thread can be closed.... this news is old and outdated now. 

Well, this is a debate with no certain answer... because only a few people can answer that. If you had the trading information of all the Exchanges and you can link the personal information with the bitcoins that are traded, then you will be able to give a correct answer.

Most regulated Exchanges have that information, but they do not divulge that personal information to the public. The average price are determined by the trading price on bigger Exchanges, where these Whales are playing.  

The moment when people start name dropping and those people are filthy rich people, you know it is a scam. Yes, I know this is a very old thread... but it is amazing that people still fall for this. 

https://www.business2community.com/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-robots/bitcoin-rocket-review  Here is a updated review, but if you read the last section, you might pick up that the testimonials are questionable.    (Also a popular method to scam people) 

There are just too many upsets in this Soccer World Cup to be an coincidence.  The opening game of the 2022 Qatar World Cup started under a cloud of controversy after allegations of match-fixing. It was rumored that Ecuador players were paid to throw the match..    https://www.timeslive.co.za/sport/soccer/2022-11-18-r128m-bribe-rocks-world-cup-opener-heres-what-fifa-is-reportedly-doing-to-fight-match-fixing/  ==> "...the host nation had “bribed eight Ecuadorian players with $7.4m (about R128m) to lose the opener”

So how many of these other countries were bribed to do the same thing? I stopped all Sports bets after the Japan and Spain defeat.. because I smell something fishy. 

The biggest mistake that most people do is this :

They scale up their living conditions and assets with the increase in their income. So to explain this....

When you earned say $10 000 per month, you bought a small car and your payment was small and you also bought a small house and your bond payments matched your income. 

Now, you get a good increase and you buy a more expensive car and a bigger house. So a more expensive car, come with higher insurance and a bigger house have more maintenance and before you know it.... you are maxed out again.

Then the economy take a knock (Like Covid & War) and governments increase interest rates to protect themselves.... and your car payment increase and also your bond payments. So, before you know it, you cannot afford the car anymore and the bond payments on the house is to big.... so you have to sell it. 

Tip : Do not compete with the Jones's ..... buy a good second hand car and a smaller house .... and stay healthy. 

I doubt that anything will be effective against these bots, because people are posting codes everywhere, even in the Stake chat. I have to say the mods in the chat are very quick to mute the people that are posting the codes, but I think these bot owners are working together and they are using Alt accounts to post the codes. 

I do not see the need...why the codes are being posted in the chat, because there are several other communication methods to do this. (I can tell you that it is getting harder to solve these questions - Google had to help me ...  )

Ps.... Are you guys also getting the "refresh" error... whilst you are wagering... because it stops everything and force you to refresh the page. 

Since when do we worry about what Banks predict for Bitcoin's future? The Banks are threatened by Bitcoin, because Bitcoin is eating away it's market dominance, when it comes to financial matters. People see that it is cheaper and faster to use Bitcoin and Banks do not like that, because they milk people with high transaction fees and they control people's wealth. (Blocking accounts / Blocking transactions and feeding financial information to governments)

We as a Bitcoin community ignore these statements, because we know why it is made.... and we rather focus on Bitcoin adoption and improving the technology. 

I am confused.... The title of this thread says ==> " The launch of LuckyRoo Casino " but the way the opening post is structured, it looks like OP is writing a review of the site and he is not affiliated with the site?

Looking at his username, it looks like he is marketing for "NewCryptoCasinos.com" as a reviewer of casinos, so this is not a thread of the opening of a new casino, but rather just a review of the site?

In any way...  OP has not responded to any posts in his thread... so he might just be using this forum to promote casinos that are hosted on their review site. 

Yes, I think one of the reasons why "Gates of Olympus" or more commonly called, "Gates" are so popular... might be because most well known Streamers have been playing it on a regular basis. Do not underestimate the influence of those well-known streamers, because Streamers are watched by 1000's of players and most of the Streamers are paid to play those slots.

The Streamers budget are big enough to continue playing until they hit a massive win on these slots and then people watching it, think they can do the same with their small budget.  

I know "Gates" are also one of Eddie's (Stake.com co-owner) favorite slots and I can almost hear him saying..." Lift that f#@$%ken arm Zeus! during his streaming sessions on Saturdays.  

Well, they also need Level 2 verification and they have to wager $3000 in the last 7 days to be eligible for the rains. This is not stopping a lot of the expert rain farmers, because they buy fake IDs and they have money to fund the $3000 weekly wager requirement. (They also have bots running for the Bonus drops... and we see a significant increase in those bots, since the 25Day of Christmas drops have started)

I have to give it to the Stake marketing team, they have changed strategies several times with these Christmas bonus drops to counter the bots, but most of these drops are fully claimed within a few minutes. 

OP, the goal of Bitcoin is not to crush the Alt coins, but rather to learn from them and then to apply improvements to it's own code. Satoshi anticipated that the Bitcoin "protocol" would be copied and he had no problem with that, because he knew his protocol would stand the test of time, if competitors tried to dethrone it as the King of tokens.

The Bitcoin protocol is a piece of code, so if some Alt coin come up with a better function... Bitcoin can cannibalize that and it can be coded into the Bitcoin  protocol. (Alt coins can copy the Bitcoin code and Bitcoin can copy their code.... but will the majority of the Full node run that code..... now that is the question)  

Also, Bitcoin's main strengths are it's huge merchant network that accept Bitcoin and also the massive amount of hashing power that are backing it for security against attacks.  

No, OP.....

Bitcoin stability does not mean that the price or value of the coins will go down, it just mean that the price will have much less price volatility. (Less high spikes and large dumps)

Let's take a look at Fiat currencies as an example.... the price stay more or less the same and it only fluctuate a little. (This is manipulated by governments)

In reality, price stability will increase the Bitcoin price... because higher adoption will increase the demand for the token. (Merchants and retailers want price stability, so more of them will start to accept Bitcoin as a currency and more people will start to use it as a currency, because they can buy more things or pay for more services with Bitcoin.)

In the "Brick n Mortar" casinos in my area, you always get the offer to sleep in the adjacent hotel for the night, when you win something big. The security says, this is done to prevent people from following you out of the casino and robbing you, when they see you winning something big. (I think they do this, because they know you are going to spend more money at the Hotel or that you will return to the casino to gamble some more) 

I never make a huge spectacle at the casino when I win something big.. to attract little attention to myself... and I always leave the casino in a large group. (Family and friends)    .....Always be Street smart... or you will become a victim. 

Well, correct me if I am wrong..... but for the fusion to take place, would they not have to burn a lot of oxygen too? (Fire needs oxygen to burn ...right?)

A better method would possibly be to just build a underground settlement with a small window to the stars and the Sun for solar power. That way, you have much less exposure to the cold and elements (corrosion) and you burn less oxygen.

I hope they will also create a Moon coin for a currency, because work that are done from home....can also be done from the Moon... and a Moon currency can compete with a Mars coin in the future. 

The thing is ... most of those Social media people are invested in whatever Crypto they are boosting, so they influence their followers to buy those Crypto, so that they can make a shitload of money. (Example : Elon Musk / Mc Afee / Roger Ver.....)

We cannot eliminate greedy people from our fight to promote Bitcoin as a Currency... and what makes things even more difficult for us, is when governments define Bitcoin as a Commodity. 

The only thing that we can do, is to support retailers when they start accepting Bitcoin as a payment option. (Use the 80/20% strategy... so in this scenario.. if you usually paid for groceries at Pick n Pay with Fiat, just convert that Fiat to Bitcoin and pay with that) 

I think a lot depends on the value of those Satoshis, because it will not be nice if those Satoshis are still valued at a fraction of a cent. We are hoping that the value of Bitcoin will increase over time and that the price will be less volatile, because we want people to use it as a Currency first and then as a Store of Value.  

So, for this to happen.... we first have to make sure that there are a more even distribution of Satoshis between people and not a high concentration of bitcoins for Bitcoin Whales only.  

So, we are getting several Bonus Drops for the 25 Days of Xmas promotion, but is this coming at a cost to many of us? I wager almost every day on Stake Original Games, so I get a good feel for what the normal RTP would look like. What I have noticed is this, whenever there are "reloads" or "Bonus Drops" ..... the RTP of these games are turned to what we call, Feeding mode.

So the theory is, when these promotions are running... Stake just tune the RTP for the original Games and it goes into feeding mode to get back the money that Stake paid out in these promotions.

This "feeding Mode" kills all attempts to wager, because it is almost double what it is normally. We have a team of about 55 players that are testing this and they confirm that they are experiencing the same thing. Now, this is in no way illegal to do this, because someone has to pay for these Bonus Drops, but is this counter productive?

Do the players want a good RTP for a nice gaming experience or do they want those Bonus Drops with a "Feeding" mode enabled?

Let's put this to a vote to see what they want ==> https://strawpoll.com/polls/6QnM7bxAaZe 

Ps.. None of this can be proven, so this is just an observation of a small group of players that are playing on Stake and testing out some things. (We communicate via WhatsApp, because we all know each other as friends)
