One thing we should settle with is the fact that self control a lot of aspects of our daily life and one needs to know the right time to apply self-control to avoid losing out, one of the major factors that aid addictions is the inability to users to make up their mind to quit when the going becomes tough.

Someone who is not taking his life seriously cannot gamble responsibly, in fact it will now get worst in gambling because such person is the type that have no self-control, while that is very important and needed in gambling, we need to be serious with our lifestyle and how we behave in general, too much of everything is bad, also which means there's moderation to how far we can go in doing things in other for us not to loose our relevance at the cause of its pursuit.
2042  Economy / Gambling / Re: Without money, does it still qualify as gambling? on: May 23, 2023, 10:08:28 AM
It depends on what an individual interpret gambling to be in his own understanding, some make fun and I'm doing this during the leisure time, they bet on something after which they have sustained alot of argument from the discussion, which is also a physical form of gambling as long as money is involved and they have made a bet to seal it up, if money is not involved, it would be termed only an argument but once you argue and put money on the outcome anticipated for, it's a form of gambling, that's why you will not see a gambling platform that will not require from you a staking amount for your bet, wxce it's not gambling at all.
2043  Economy / Gambling / Re: What else should an established crypto casino add? on: May 23, 2023, 09:53:30 AM
Now there is a lot of cheating in live games in the casino. It would be nice to create games with fairness control so that everything is transparent.

This depends on the kind of gambling platforms you're using, most of them have built a wall of resistance against any attempts from the gamblers in cheating them, the system will definitely fish out such user over time and they may be sanctioned, the gambling casinos also need to maintain their security network with a food financial backup and the type of operators they have employed to monitor their system also matters, because experience is a perfect teacher and if it's the casino that you're not trusting, then try to closely observe them before concluding on the decision to take.
2044  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Politicians behind the development of gambling platform on: May 23, 2023, 09:40:31 AM
So a Politician who is also a great businessman then decided to be part of the most trending market in the world as of now, what's wrong with that?
Who is stopping you to own a share or part of a gambling company if you are licensed and paying all your taxes. I don't have any problem with this.
I don't see anything wrong with a politician having there own casino or having there own gambling platforms. It may be very wrong or against the law in some countries but here, there is nothing wrong. What I know is that the politician would not want the public to know that they have shares in a particular casino or owns it. A politician that is a business man would not mind creating there own casino, allowing gamblers to make bet and earn if they keep making winnings.
This is a private enterprise and a politician have the full right as a citizen of a country to have shares or have there own casino ones they are paying there tax.

Anyone can have a gambling platform fully operational as long as he has interest in doing such and have the experience needed as well, irrespective of the profession we are handling, we can still own a gambling platform but that doesn't mean we should have one through an illegal means by making government funds diversion on our own personal interest and business than directing them to the appropriate chanels for national building, money embezzlement is common with the politicians but that doesn't judge the fact that all of them were involved in this kind of corrupt manners.
2045  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: increased Youtube Gambling ads? on: May 23, 2023, 09:16:24 AM
I also experience this recently. I thought it's just me. But I guess the number and frequency of gambling ads became more and more noticeable in YT and in other social media platforms such as Facebook. There are many advertisement nowadays about gambling even if you are just streaming a random vlog, song, or meme. It appears in the mainstream media more often and sometimes i feel bothered about it since there might be someone below 18 who are lurking around.

We should just Know this that stopping the effect or appearance of these ads may not stop because it's one of their own promotional efforts in getting their services and products being advertised, we also need to be careful not to fall of victim of any ads we come across by clicking them, ads has its own advantages in it's little way because it aid fast information dissemination across the world through the social media platforms.

I believe it is not my algorithm talking since I'm not really much into watching gambling related videos or even viewing gambling related content. There are even many so-called influencers who are advertising gambling nowadays. So most probably, gambling just become more and more known and became a means of sideline to some.

You don't really have to be gambling video inclined person before you can be receiving their ads, they randomly selects platforms they advertise on and the things we often watch while on YouTube, all work together with their precision and set ads on videos we watch etc.
2046  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can i make 100 $ daily from online casinos on: May 23, 2023, 09:00:58 AM
I've played free games and also won money and I had fun playing the game also, so there's no definite disqualifier between all those.  Usually gambling is money but also we are in the sector of the economy that at least originally started off as virtual value and now everyone says its 100% real value but the origins are still real to me in that people here will gamble anything even virtual tokens with unknown value.
   I can gamble anything and have fun, if I end up with the most tokens then in competitive terms I was the #1 in that game and its victory even without money.  

Gamblers will not mind to see a game that will be free and yet they will stand the chance to earn more from such, but we eed to think about the possibility of some situations in gambling before concluding about them, most arvanced gamblers today will tell you they don't have time to be seeking after free gambling platforms or the ones that offers little incentives on weekly or monthly basis, because they have their own money to gamble and also does not see loosing a bet an obstacle, but for the other category of gamblers who have esteemed what they will get in return and the rate, they will always value those incentives they receives as income no matter how little but not that a gambler will now be on a look of a particular income rate which is fix for his reward or pay in gambling every week or monthly.
2047  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gamblers understood the game on: May 23, 2023, 08:19:48 AM
How many times have you successfully invited some gamblers to online casino? What is your experience doing so?

It's never an easy task to have to comvince and persuade someone into gambling, you will have to engage on an extensive talk and explanations to get them convinced first before you now begin to teach them how they can bet in gambling, this is the normal procedure which is a bit difficult to do for someone who has no gambling experience or interest before, but the whole lot of stress could be ease if the person is already interestes in gambling but need the help of someone to out him through.

I have successfully brought in four people into crypto gambling, and it was the easiest thing ever, they came asking if it's possible to use crypto for gambling and I said yes, but I told them that I am not ready to introduce any platform for anyone, but these guys then showed me there past gambles on a local website that only accept Fiat, that's when I got soft with them and I showed them the websites I use for gambling.

You got it very easy on you because they are not a newbie in gambling even though they have been using the local gambling stations, there's nothing bad if you can recommend them with few online casinos to try out, they already know the risk in gambling to be win or loose unlike someone that has never gamble in his entire life before.
2048  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: effect of a million bitcoins on: May 22, 2023, 09:36:40 PM
No effect on the network at all, only I think if the sender is kind enough to set a very high fee for the miner's reward (as a billionaire) say 1000BTC for a single transaction, then it will probably be a record in bitcoin mining history using current price conversion.

Fine anyone ca hodl upto such amount but i also think about it im this direction that it's too much, bitcoin is a currency that has to be evenly distributed across the world that everyone will have access to it utilization, if those mining it aren't greedy enough to cease them to their own favour and hodl or inflate the price then i don't think those holding it as well can make any difference than to sell from what the market gives
2049  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: The unforseen and likely occurrence in the Bitcoin space on: May 22, 2023, 09:30:40 PM
Good day everyone, base on your interaction with the crypto space , in 10 to 20 years to come, what are the unforseen situation that may be exposed to the Crypto space and what are the right measure that can help curtailed this situation.[) quote]

There's no unforeseen good and better development with the bitcoin network that we haven't seen already with the bitcoin network and it BIPs whicheams nothing than seeing the network progressing as expected and extending to every part of the world where it has not been adopted, we all look forward to seeing more countries making bitcoin a legal tender, we don't expect any other than thses as long as the network is not attacked and the protocols remains effective guiding it with the blockchain technology, bitcoin remains ever relevant.

2050  Other / Politics & Society / Re: All bad - like the main one? on: May 22, 2023, 03:54:59 PM
Being good or bad is not by saying it with mouth, we see it from their kind of lifestyle, some say that they are very dreadful but you discover that it's just an empty threat and some that also profess being good are the ones very worst to trust their characters as to how far they can be so desperate in doing wicked things underneath, we cannot know ourselves completely not to talk about knowing others and their way of life.
2051  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: effect of a million bitcoins on: May 22, 2023, 03:45:09 PM
what will be the effect on network and different technical metrics, if anyone sent 1 millions bitcoins in 1 transaction (hypothetically for now because no one have even 2% in one wallet)

The bitcoin market will turn centralized which is not possible, there will be manipulations by the giant whales in determining the bitcoin price.

It also depends on the medium in which such individual is sending from, if it's through an exchange then it depends on the policies and they make for the minimum and maximum deposit or withdrawal capacity, if its an transaction from a Cold storage then i think that they should be able to accommodate more higher rate than the exchanges, but let's say the reality, no one can hodl upto that amount not even in El-Savador where bitcoin is a legal tender, the beauty of bitcoin lies in holding it in every channel of distribution across the world and not by a single mother entity.
2052  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Who has never done it before. on: May 22, 2023, 03:39:11 PM
Children and teenagers learn better from what the see rather than what the hear, the reason why the environment a child grows up in is a very strong determinant and factor to their upbringing.
It's true that most times, children who are said to be brought up in a proper environment turn wayward along the line but I am very sure in most cases, those characters are hereditary, either from the dad, mum or even relative.

We were all once at a point in time a child and have been in such stage, so we should be able to tell more about the experience of children in the society and means they learn, grow and adapt in the environment as a matter of fact, the best we could give them is to invest in them what will make them a better person tomorrow, because children are the leaders of tomorrow, we must train them at all expenses to us to have rest tomorrow.
2053  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Can't central bankers just buy all the bitcoin and miners? on: May 22, 2023, 03:33:23 PM
Can't central bankers just buy all the bitcoin and miners? so what is the point again? to prolong are $lavery?

They can't do that, not only can't they do such, bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency and cannot be owned by the government, we have miners distributed across the world in all countries holding their bitcoin reward after mining and can't sell to government except individuals through p2p for privacy sake, aslo know that the entire bitcoin isn't mined completely at the same time, there's still more to solved over the years coming, so no single entity can accumulate the entire bitcoin, not even Microstrategy or anyone well known as giant whales.
2054  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Getting Educated on: May 22, 2023, 03:27:22 PM
Education is a major tool for a successfully society which means without education no development, knowledge also is important because it is almost the same with education and it is the bedrock of education, when an individual lacks know he or she is misinformed or falls withing the category of people that fails to learn and unlearn so in everyday in this new era people that want to learn are learning because the internet has made it even more easier to learn.

Anyone not educated will take the consequences of being an illiterate because it will affect their behavior, thinking ability, reasoning factor, mental and physical behavioral manners, some use to say tha illiteracy is a disease, because it will affect the general overview of the person in his business and entire life circle in the society, education brings about every technology advancement we are seing today including the phone we use and the forum that we all gather here to discuss about bitcoin and others matters of the economy and society.
2055  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: BTC or altcoin on: May 22, 2023, 03:21:22 PM
BTC and ETH will outperform most of the market, apart from a handful of project that will stay relevant in the longterm, if you're confident enough to pick those out, then go for it but most people will end up losing money. So better stick with the big one which is BTC.

Of you take bitcoin first then follow by Ethereum, i don't see any risk in doing that because they are well recognized cryptocurrency, i will not advise putting your entire money into them because anything can happen, try to maintain being safe, take low risk and maximize your winnings potential by making diversification with your investment, try to target the bullrun and hodl the investment on your personal crypto wallet.
2056  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Relying on someone else's signals on: May 22, 2023, 03:13:54 PM
Does anyone have experience following someone else's signals? How did that work out?

You're free to follow anyone else signal, prediction or ideas as lomg as you're away of the risk involved and you're taking it for yourself, there's nothing too bad in learning how to read about those signals as well, they were not also born with it, they only sir to develop themselves in learning, you have the opportunity of the use of internet, or the forum here in learning, if you don't learn, will you continually go to them for more signals each time.

I personally have belief that all signal groups try to make money of you rather than for you, whether it be through making group behind paywall later on, using group members for pump & dumps, using group for marketing, etc.

Has anyone here ever succeeded in following someone else's signals?

Joining a group is not by force, it's a choice, some will even pay for it while they believe in whatever they were being told, well that's their own choice, it's their money at stake not ours.
2057  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What if the block reward was based on the absolute value of the delta in hashr8? on: May 22, 2023, 02:42:09 PM
Hashrates cannot be stopped at except if the entire blocks had been completely mined, for now there's no fix hashrates level that we use in determining this because it can be a little high or low sometimes, but yet that's not the reason to why the bitcoin price or the transa fee jumped up, there are many things to consider to this, but in this occasion of the recent experience, it was due to the inclusion of ordinals inscription on the bitcoin network making it more competitive as they imcreases so is the transaction fee increases because they have taken over the network because of their highest bid for making their own transaction to get confirmed first.
2058  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how exchanges list news crypto tokens on: May 22, 2023, 02:24:07 PM
i want to know,
how do crypto exchanges list new tokens, what terms and condition or what type of document are needed to list a token .
i really doesn't know anything so may be the written terms may seem off the points

Definitely there will be requirements to this process of enlistment and this has to do with each particular exchange with their own requirements before they can enlist a coin, also know that there's risk in doing such because you may not actually finds out the real state of the developers of that coin or project and same applies to the exchanges that make enlistment, not all exchanges are reliable, some have no reputation can can easily low down their requirements to ensure they enlist as many as possible cryptocurrencies which many may turn scam at the end, but ones we know the risk involved in both the coin and the exchanges, we will know to further our research before investing on one.
2059  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: [WARNING] Stay away from BRC-20 tokens - there are far better options on: May 22, 2023, 02:10:40 PM
I think those people that are obsessed with BRC20's don't realize that the dev himself said that it's still experimental. But on this market, people who sees some opportunity to make quick profits don't have to look at those sides.

As long as they get money from these trends, they'll stay and when it's about to show its pitfall then everyone will start to loose and untie themselves on it before it collapses.

Thank you OP for this thread!

If you're interested in NFTs and you're putting your money into them calling them your investment then you're wrong, that hype they always see common to this kind of token is what use to deceive many from enjoying the fruit of their investment after they would have been distracted to invest on the wrong token, there's a very high risk in token than in memecoins, we should know that they are just all about a temporary research just like the testnet before the main launch is out which is the coin.
2060  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: NFT OR MEMES on: May 22, 2023, 01:47:38 PM
It's more safe to invest on coins and not NFTs, try as much as possible to make sure that your investment is what you do to make you have a future rest because NFTs could come with some uncertainties that could create fear in the future, if you're also choosing memecoins as your preferred investment, make sure you have conducted a prooper research on them before choosing any because some have wrecked rown their investors in the past as the project eventually failed along the line leaving them without option left to embrace.
