Have you ever seen the WWF? You could argue that's been making a mockery of boxing for 25+ years - I know they call it "wrestling" but in reality it's all just theatrics in a boxing ring. I don't see any problem with it, if all fighters are aware of the risks and willingly want to participate then leave them to it. As we see with the popularity of the WWF contest every year, some people just like to watch this as a form of entertainment rather than a professional sport. There are serious tournaments and there are mock fights, follow whatever you like and it doesn't hurt anyone else. The real saps are the people paying for tickets which ultimately ends up funding the huge wage packets they get in return.
Thinking off sensibly that if these mockery doesnt really get huge revenue or profits then we wont really be seeing for them to continue these things and i heavily agree on what you had said and compared it on WWF
which is basically been done on a boxing ring and we've been seeing these things for a long time and still present as of today which does simply imply that there's really a market for this.If you do find this stuff
to be not good or not right at all then you could just simply leave and ignore but there are people who do really like to see these things just for them to be entertained
and since people are different then we could really see different preferences.

Not just shiba, but there's a dozen different others I think.
I tried a couple of them, just to see how they behave in this bear market.
To my surprise one of them was 20% in profit last time I checked ( after about a month ) the other one $50 in profit after one day. Not bad !  Grin
But to be honest I don't think I would put any money on Doge or Shiba... they're already far too high in the rankings.. way... way higher than they deserve. The best gains are made when your meme coin is ranked #800 or somewhere around there
So you are talking about low caps? Gaining from it? Then its good for you since not all would really be having that risk taking step on dealing with low caps specially those projects which are been made just because of
the hype.We've seen lots of it not only on meme coins but also in other projects as well which whenever there's some hype then expect that developers or owners would be definitely creating one and trying out
to jump in with the hype and then make money out of those people who had attached themselves with the trend but still ending up on its value into the floor because people arent really that
dumb but surprisingly there are projects who do able to make it out.

Leaving aside social conditioning factors, since it will be more difficult to become rich if you are born into a poor family in Somalia than if you are born into a middle-class family in Austria, a common characteristic of people who are not born rich and become rich is to believe that their destiny is largely in their own hands. There is always a luck component that you can't control but if you want to improve your economic situation you better get off your ass to make it happen.
Always talks about on the effort that you should make rather than making big plans inside into your brain but not doing anything then it would really be just normal that you would really remain as a poor one.
Work hard and work smart and persevere on what you are trying to achieve and not just pure talks because you wont really be making yourself progressive if you wont really be making such actions.
We know that there are advantages when you are really that being born on a rich family since you do have the financial advantage whenever you do set up plans on making investment or something in related
compared into those people who do lack opportunity and chances but somewhat it cant be impossible if you do just simply work hard and persevere.

It's not good that the employee (Gambler's nephew) shouts like this in the casino.
He should have gone to his uncle's house and explained to him that he should stop gambling and think about his family. If he doesn't stop despite this, then it is on him. No one can force him as he will probably change the casino if he felt awkward when his nephew shouted at him.

Quote
If you were the casino manager would you fire the casino worker for interfering with your business or would you ban the gambler from visiting the casino?
If it's the first time it's not an issue but if it happens again and again I'll kick them both out as they are disturbing other players.  Cheesy

The employee had a thousand of choice on this situation but it's just easy for us to say this because we aren't in his shoes. He could've say to the management and ask them not to let his uncle in the establishment to control his gambling desires but he got emotional when he saw he's uncle walking again inside the casino and suddenly shouted him.
I understand the man why he acted that way but his action wasn't professional as he's working that time.
You should really be that mindful when it comes to your actions specially that you are in your workspace or simply on where you do get your income from which it would really be just normal that you should
be careful because it would really be putting at risk on losing your work just because you do make such act but its not really something surprising for someone to be that in concern specially
if its your relative or loved ones who are really that getting involved with gambling addiction but you should really mind off about trying to set out on appropriate way
on which you wont really be creating up some noise around because its a business and making such action will really make out some effect which you would be putting yourself on risk.
2045  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How diversified are you with your investment, crypto aside? on: August 02, 2022, 07:56:48 PM
fo me, investing in crypto is a risky but profitable investment, moreover in Bitcoin. some altcoins are also owned like BNB, ETH, LTC, and some others. but not sure about the APY.
outside cry[to, investment in gold is one of the ways that I can reach, than in property because of the limited capital
Everything is a risk, 'life itself is a risk' and there is nothing to change that. If you are to invest in crypto you have to choose one of them, if you think you are diversifying when you invest in btc, eth, bnb etc, you are wrong, i will choose only btc, and for the other person, they should choose the one coin they trust, then look outside of crypto for extra investment, i.e. bitcoin and gold, bitcoin and stocks, bitcoin and silver, etc, that is diversification.
Wont really be bad to choose other option as long your finances permits and able for you to do so.Doesnt matter if you do choose traditional investment or adding up your  crypto portfolio.
You do really need to take up some risk and its true that everything does have the risk.Therefore, you should really be that having on being prepared on certain conditions.
Its up to you because all of us are really that serious on finding other source of income which might be generated out by the investments that we are involving in.
Although it wont really be that simple and effective most of the time but at least we do try.
2046  Economy / Gambling / Re: What is a game you would like to see in an online crypto casino? on: August 01, 2022, 08:59:16 PM
If you play with the real money,it won’t be that much fun.Instead if you play with the game using the cryptocurrency like bitcoin and others will give us more fun.Because the profit you had earned will be received with the cryptocurrency.So you can use the cryptocurrency to hold,when the price received cryptocurrency was pump,you can double the profit.
Would really be just the same whether you do make use of fiat or crypto as long it does hold some value or you know that you could  get something then the thrill and interest would be there not like
when you do play using playmoney or demo which is totally a different experience.Doesnt matter on what games you are tending to play since everyone does have different set of interest.
For games that we do want to see then we do love to see something different or unique considering that we've been seeing almost the same games offered with most platforms
and they do only differ with GUI/GUX but in overall sense it is really just the same thing.
2047  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Knowing Potential projects on: August 01, 2022, 08:43:25 PM
As we all are seeing the launching of new projects one after one. So, one should take care of many things before investing. How to know the real potential of these new projects?

1. Check the team
2. Check the projects relevance
3. Check Roadmap
4. Check Whitepaper
5. Check development behavior
6. Utility
7. Security
etc....

Even though you do make or able to see this checklist but doesnt mean it would give out
assurance on getting some success on your investment. Everything would boils down into community demand.
Therefore, there's no way on making up some assurance on everything.
2048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: This clearly damage the gambling. on: August 01, 2022, 07:53:07 PM
Yes fix matches do happen in different leagues but not as obvious that the public will instantly know something went wrong. Fix matches are suppose to be what the coaching crew may know and players but fans that are not insiders won't know but in the case of this particular one, even passer by that happens to watch it would ask questions too. This kind of fix matches makes people treat the game with unseriousness, mockery and disdain.
It will be tag by those who watch and bet with this type of game, it's no secret that game-fixing is really happening but not that obvious, there are rigged games that taking place and people who are involved to this business knows how to deal in it without a trace, in some cases, there are obvious that being reviewed and if proven sanctions will take place.

Parties that involve in these transactions are moving in a very discreet way in order not to being caught by anyone around.
Unfortunately, it will depend on the severity of the game and how obvious the fixed match for parties to be penalize on this kind of events. Small events and game has the most obvious and more fixed matches has been made as players are easily bribed to do so. However, fixed matches also happens on huge games but it not as obvious and further investigation will be held before even declaring the game as a fixed match and for someone to be penalized. But, it is rare for someone to be caught doing so as reputation are staked on higher leagues.
True, Match fixing on higher leagues are different. Players who are being bribed is being extra careful on the moves he/she will do because it's easy for their viewers and fans to see if their are something weird happening. I'm sure they are aware that one suspicious move can make the game flagged as match fixing, This is why players that has reputation are being extra careful not being caught. This is why I think we only have seen few match fixing games on higher leagues compared to lower ones. 
It is really rampant on lower leagues on which only a few or wont really be getting  that much attention which would really be that easy to execute those match fixing plans and its true that fans eyes arent
really that too dumb on not to notice something odd because once we are really that familiar with the game plus on the past performance of a certain player or team and having a little bit
change would really raising up some eyebrows on what the hell is happening and this is where suspicions do being mold or created thats why its not really that much common on
bigger leagues since it could really be noticed out easily and thats something that they dont really like.
2049  Economy / Economics / Re: Social media, now looking more for business than for socializing. on: July 31, 2022, 08:39:00 PM
All the social media was used for the business and economic development.It also improve the concept of socialisation.Many new youngsters had gained good knowledge from the social media.They get to know,how to react in the society for certain things.The TikTok is used for the promotion of verbal things and verbal ideologies among the young people.
Anything could really be used whether messaging apps or even videos or most likely on social media and just been said that since this had the most traffic then it would really be just right
or sensible for you to be doing such action because you do know that marketing out your business or products on such places would really be giving the good odds on getting positive outcome
considering about the traffic then  you could really say that it would be worth it.Yes, it is made for socialization but it could really act on the same time on using for it to business.
Its a personal choice since not all do make out business but there are some who do just surf out because of different interest or the other way around.
2050  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling in Moderation, Pros can out weigh its Cons in Financial and Health? on: July 30, 2022, 09:46:38 PM
Discipline and gambling are two different things. In our region gamblers are not appreciated and they always face criticism and distress.
But its very good to know that many gamblers are disciplined and they don't steal other people's money and don't have lust for taking advantage of other. I have hardly seen selfless people who are concerned about themselves and are not selfish at all.


That's just being an average, decent human being nowadays. Never knew that one can be applauded if they did the bare minimum of what being a human is. There are still a lot of gamblers that obviously know better, and problematic gamblers are actually a small percentage that requires intervention and outside help. Most people are still probably rational and know the consequences if ever they tried stealing to satiate their gambling hunger.
I got confused on your statement whereas human needs to do the bare minimum to be applauded. Do you mean, being a discipline individual whereas you only do moderate gambling activities? Actually, since human are prone to addiction and greed because it is on our nature to do so, it is great to be appreciated or applauded if you will be able to minimize and control your gambling activities since we all know that gambling has all of the characteristics for us to be addicted and for our greed to be boosted.
Self awareness and does have that strong self control and discipline on which it would really able you to stop gambling or whatever you are dealing with when you do already saw that you are losing that much.
This might sounds easy to say but it is really that hard to be done or would be a challenging thing specially if you are a person who is really that greedy.Well, we do have do have that greed inside
but there are people who are really good on controlling themselves and there are ones who cant. If you dont like for your life to become miserable when it comes to finances then you should really
be that sensible for any actions that you would tend to do. I dont think Pros can outweigh the Cons considering on how things been affected on this one.
2051  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Btc not moving but we need every day some moves where the moves? on: July 29, 2022, 07:39:50 PM
So btc again not moving but we need each everyday moves where are they ?
Pumps and dumps ?
Can the market become independet of btc ?
Like all coins whts depending on btc not just move if btc dint move
But we need moves everyday where is the real moves ?
Is are all the moves i n DEX ? Becouse binance not moving
Should we all move in dex now ?
Like in pancakeswap where is 170000% moves and yhats at least something some action.

Or what is the solution ?
Need some moves big moves otherwise not interested about trading
Trading does involved buy and sell and it wont matter if its on small movement or big which it could definitely be called up that way.Just like been said by most people on here that pumps or movements arent always that
high or too volatile or certain days here on crypto space which does simply means that there are indeed times that the market is moving sideways or not that much but still volatile since percentage movement
is still a movement.It is really just that you arent preferring to see those kind of percentage and hoping for 17k or higher multipliers which is definitely can be seen through shitcoins but if we do talk about those known and established coins then we wont really be seeing those kind of numbers considering their value which is mostly on their ATH then it wold really be totally impossible.
2052  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Rise of Streamers in Online Gambling on: July 29, 2022, 06:10:41 PM

On the other hand this streamers though could be paid so obviously, the results might be rigged so that those watching are going to be attracted. So it's a win-win for this streamers and the casinos or games that they are promoting.

I'd like to believe that there are many fake streamers trying to manipulate the results, they are being paid by casinos to make it look like its easy to win in the casino they advertise, they are not spending their own money, why would they if they want the casino to look good they will strike a deal on the casino that they are going to promote.
That is casino streaming is a very popular advertising preferred by casinos because the audiences see the streamer's winnings and they are enticed to play in the casino, hoping to get the same results.
in my country there is a gambling casino streamer. In the storyline, this famous streamer makes a video between the casino owners having a discussion who is reluctant to make another gambling ad/renewal of the contract. because he feels guilty for making an advertising video that makes his followers/viewers mentally damaged excessively. so the streamers are given an account from the casino to play, the account has been set from the founder's side which makes the streamers win continuously in the large amount they get. I think soccer betting or sports betting can be said to be more effective
You wont really be seeing those streams who do involved on sports betting considering that results are too long to wait for viewers to look upon thats why its quite irrelevant and if you do
look around then most streamers would really be showing off casino related games which its really normal for them to advertise or stream out.I agree on whats been said above
that these streamers wont care on whose gonna see their stream as long they had made their job and  making money or income with it then ethical aspect or talks would be surely ignored.
Even myself be putting up on a situation where i do earn good money via streaming then i wouldnt care at all.
2053  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How good is staking coins? on: July 27, 2022, 11:50:28 PM
I think everyone that willing to stake their capital and investment for staking with long time period in order to make some great returns should think in regard of the volatility that could eats up their generated returns from the staking since currently the trend is still looking grim.
It's unlike in bullish where staking could also get your investment increase in value, most of the time right now majority of coins are losing value, therefore it's gonna be hard decision in staking with locking period since there could be meaningless
Not bad on staking on bear markets and since we know that APY percentage is considerable compared to banks then you would able to accumulate in equivalent in todays price and when the value increase then you

would definitely earning more than on what you have anticipate which is the pros of staking but of course it would really same goes when the market turns out to be bearish or declining even more.

The only thing i dont like about staking is just too long for us to wait but its a personal choice since there are people who could really deal up with long term investment.
Just mind off about the risk and if you could bare out on the risk then go ahead and invest.
2054  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Threshold of Loss in Gambling on: July 27, 2022, 11:06:49 PM
My strategy is not to exceed the loss threshold in gambling by making a maximum deposit of 20% of my savings to enjoy the game, and when the balance runs out I must stop so it doesn't have a big impact on my finances.
20% of savings is already big imho but well its your money then you do have the full rights on what it should be since we do have out own personal threshold when it comes to losses
since not all would really be similar into financial status or condition on each individual  which simply means that it would really be varying.The most important thing is that you do
make your limitations when it comes to gambling spending or losses so that you wont be finding yourself having financial problems later on.Always set limits and do go beyond
on it because it would really be putting you into hardship and consequences that you havent experienced on your entire life.
2055  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Is trading really worth it? on: July 27, 2022, 09:59:53 PM
It is lucrative for those that have been doing it all days of their lives but it's not for everyone. We may see the best success stories from those traders but we can fairly say that many of them are losing more than what they're showing to the public with their wins.
I don't want to overhype trading because it could misled a newbie and that's what they usually base their decisions upon seeing others winning their trades.
Normal thing that you would really be somewhat proud of to share when you do have winning trades and its true that losses would really be more than on what you had earned
which means that we dont know the story behind on how much losses they had experienced in the past before they do able to reach out the condition on where they are profitable.
Trading is worth it but this isnt something simple that anyone could make out profits directly thats why you should not really hype yourself into something which cant
really be that easy to deal with and does really take lots of time and effort before you could reach out such condition.
It's worth it and there's no doubt about that. But if you go ahead with the actual thing, it's harder than expected and that's why many are losing because they think that it's easy. There's the sensation of it being overhyped and there's no doubt as well that many have made money from it. Even I, but there's the wrong matter on it, like having the misconception that it's very easy to trade and you just have to learn this and that and you're good to go. There's more that the newbies need to learn before they get into successful trades unless luck is part of them with their first trades.
People do end up on frustrated because this isnt how the things that they are anticipating earlier in regards with trading.Its true that lots believed that it was easy but on the time that they do experience for themselves then this is where they do realize that those things in mind is just wrong or misconception about it.Trading is worth it but its not for all people but wont really be that possible  for it to be easy or dealing with.
If you do know on how to deal with yourself within markets and able to make profits.Luck is also part but we know that strategy and analysis would be the main key on making yourself survive on a market
which is really too volatile.
2056  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking to start an online casino on: July 27, 2022, 08:55:02 PM

I have worked with start up projects before and I have never seen a single serious project with less than $50000 USD seed capital. Usually it is even $100000 USD funding that they require from multiple investors or self-funding.

As far as Online Gambling Casinos go, especially considering the risk of having people win large amounts of money that you HAVE TO pay out immediately, I don't think that casinos will need less than double or even triple of that of regular projects.

So I am going to take a guess and say that no less than $100000 USD is going to bring you very far, even if you save on developer cost by being a developer yourself.
It should be the minimum considering from having capital then it wouldnt really be just enough i must say thats why i do really agree into your inputs about capital and since this is a big business then you cant just
put up less considering that there are lots of things need to be adjusted or fixed or to be set up then it wont really be that enough.When you are complete noob about expenses or something then you should
really consult someone who do have actually the idea and knowledge on building up these platforms from top to bottom but be careful that you wont really be dealing on someone who would really be taking some
advantage of your no knowledge which they can charge you up even more than as usual.This is the hard part when you are dealing on a business which you dont have even the basic idea.

I mean for me, it would depend on how "ignore" means to someone. It could be ignoring to the fact that no actions would be made obviously. Did that couple of times since my money is not particularly numbering themselves really well, so I just kept holding my Bitcoin regardless and did not sell because why would anyone sell at the dip at the basic sense, lol.
You cant really tell that its just basic sense because even though we could really say that its dumb when you do make a sell on a  declining market but there are indeed people who actually done it.
Sounds dumb right? but there are ones who do panic out whenever they do saw their portfolio is going down thats why we cant really make out conclusions yet but it is really just right for us
to hold rather than on selling it because there's no point when you do make such action if you do know that the market could really make out some recovery on upcoming months or years.
Although it cant really be that predicted but we do really know its potential which we have seen this one.
2058  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Looking to start an online casino on: July 26, 2022, 11:51:02 PM
Yeah I will have to agree with what most people are saying in this thread. If you cannot make it yourself and you do not have the money to buy the people who can make it for you, then you are out of luck. There is no way for you, a online-casino-newbie to put hard work into your project therefore I doubt you will find any investors who will be interested unless you are very slick at talking. You can try crowdfunding. But you need to show a very detailled and nice idea of the project before anyone will even be interested in listening.
to create a casino gambling place it will require a very large amount of money capital and at least the founder must understand the digital world or at least be able to programming languages because if you only rely on money and do not have computer science to build a gambling website system then one day when the developer who is recruited comes out it will be confused and can't check the system for bugs or not so that it can make this gambling owner not exposed to fraud as often happens in cyberspace.
It would really be needing huge amount of money because this is a business that really needs to be set up properly.
Consider the ff:

1. Site Bankroll
2. Site design UI/UX
3. Support or staff members
4. Security
etc.....

You cant really just not put emphasis on this key areas because it would really be such a waste if your business ending up on a
failure just because you hadnt put up emphasis nor importance.
2059  Economy / Economics / Re: You don't earn money only from others, but also when you avoid spending your own on: July 26, 2022, 10:53:27 PM
Usually people get anxious and frenetic for new sources of income, to find new jobs, so they can maximize their patrimony as soon as possible, but many of them forget you don't accumulate wealth only when receiving money or being paid by others for a work. We can also decrease our expenses and stop third-partying tasks we can do ourselves, so at the end of a monthly cycle we will have earned more money to invest and make it grow overtime.

People create so many worthless fixed expenses nowadays. It can be monthly subscriptions of services they barely use, eating out too often, purchasing superfluous clothes, accessories and items in general just for vanity towards the society. Sometimes people have all the tools they need on their hands to finish a solid building, however, since they don't know how to use them properly, it will look like they constantly need more and more tools indefinitely.
This is correct, I have known people that earn a good salary and that live a good life but if they lose their job they will be homeless in a matter of months, and in fact I have seen this scenario playing out once in front of my eyes.

And while I do not earn nowhere near what those people earn I do save and invest my money, so even if I happened to lose my job I could survive without any problem for years and that is because I do my best to not spend my money in stuff I do not really need.
Always prepare for plan B's because you cant really have your day job like forever and there's always a risk on getting fired or had some lay off which means that once happened then you would really be ending up on getting broke or homeless if you could really not able to find another job to sustain your living because we know that living is really expensive nowadays even lets just say about living by just having a food on your table.
Therefore, it would really be just normal that you would really be finding another source of income through investment and it is really just suggestible that you would really be needing to be wise or else you wont
really be living a comfortable life just because you are really that short when it comes to expenses which you do need to sustain.

Do not be greedy.

A simple tip yet many forgets when they're on the wins. They're being tricked by that feeling because if the amount is too small to call the day out.

It's making you want to pursue because you think that it's not yet enough. Eventually, you'll be able to be chased by the house if you don't stop and if you're greedy and wanting more even if you've won already.
Know on when to stop when greens
Know on when to call it a day
Knows on how to stop when you are on losses.

You cant really able to beat up the house and trying to make yourself believe that you can beat them up and make easy profits.Yes, you could be possibly
able to make yourself rich but you would be needing those extreme luck for you to make yourself able to hit those times or scenarios.
Dont mind much about on how to win but rather mind on how to enjoy the game at least and mind of that those amounts been deposit
