As far as I know, it's almost impossible to find out a public address which has some BTC balance on it.
Generating a private address and then it's public key and then it's public address takes some computational power.
Current computing powers would take it years before you find some address with balance on it.
Super computers might help in this case but then who would give us that access to a super computer.
Even a super computer would take ample amount of time to find an address with a balance on it.

In this bear market, does 100$ on Ethereum or Bitcoin make any difference? As a newbie who have only 100$ to risk is this even enough? Can this get me anywhere?

Lets say the bear market will soon over and even if we go bullish what are your expected returns ?
Even if ETH goes 2x or 3x from the current price that would give you just $200 or $300.
So now you can ask yourself whether these returns are sufficient for you or not.
If yes, then go ahead with the investment. Besides that $100 is not such a big amount you can very well risk it for the sake of getting involved in crypto.

OP seems to be an addict because he is keeping on creating new accounts while he still wants to stop gambling.
He wants to get himself banned but he's using the wrong way to stop gambling.
Telling others on stake that he's using VPN and is 16 gives out a bad impression on others.
In fact he is in a way encouraging others to do the same things. OP should stop doing these activities.
obviously he is a perfect example of an addicted gambler , he even admitted everything that he is doing , from pretending to be a Minor, and even telling the site that he is using VPN , this is a clear proof that he is having a mental problem towards gambling.
and also seems like he is making this story against Stake.com? because why continuously creating account in Stake.com when there are many gambling site that he can try and play?

I think he's just bored... I don't know how he doesn't hate opening new mail and casino accounts every time? He probably has too much free time and a lot of energy that he spends on stupid things, as we can see. It would be better for him to look for something smarter to do, something useful that could fulfill him! If he keeps banging his head against the wall, he will hurt himself!

Obviously he has a lot of free time as he mentioned he's just 16. I think he's not even placing any major bets because that would require a big deposit.
So creating multiple accounts he is just abusing the system on Stake platform.
As long as he is not depositing any big amount he's good but once he deposits a big amount I think Stake will try to freeze his money.
This will teach him a lesson may be.

How can a newbie invest in good altcoins? I know about BTC and ETH but I think I can make more money from altcoins instead of BTC and ETH, I did my research and I have a few projects in mind but I don't know if they are worthy..

Avalanche, Mina protocol, Phala network and Aleph Zero to name a few

You are already doing the right things here. The first and foremost thing is to do the research on your own.
You have done your part and selected a few coins. The next step is to get peer reviews and this forum is the best place for that.
Read what others have to say but don't get influenced by any of them. Think about it and then make your decision based on facts and figures.

From your list my best pic would be Avalanche.

Whales are definitely there in BTC and ETH market but it doesn't mean that their influence will large impact the price of bitcoin or ethereum.
Ofcourse many people hold large amounts of BTC and ETH but at the same time the marketcap is huge enough to not make very huge difference.
It might create a spike then and there and they might be able to create a minor dump but what happens at such huge levels are not manipulations afterall.
We need to see the charts at higher time frame to indicate whether it is a manipulation or a trend reversal.
2046  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: How trading during bear market can save your portfolio on: July 09, 2022, 01:31:14 PM
Let us assume you invested $190 when bitcoin price was at $19000. The price of bitcoin presently is $21000. The asset worth from $19000 to $21000 is $210. The profit gained is $20. The percentage gained is still approximately 9.5%.

To buy at low price and sell at high price is good, but holding longer for months or like 2 or more years may earn more profit after bear market, instead of swing trading after long time of having your asset in fiat or stable coin.
Yeah right. It only takes one wrong trade and that takes away most of the profit that we could make just by holding the coin.
We think its the right time to sell but then the next week the prices are so high that we miss the boat.
Trading is not for everyone at least not for me. Investing and holding on to it on the other side is so calm and gets you mass profits.
This has happened to me a lot of times before. I have traded or held a lot of coins back in my day and still doing it, but when I started trading some of that, I have lost so much time to time, earned a lot as well I can't lie, so it's fine but those times when I lost, took a lot of the profit part of it back. Yes, I believe that it is very important for people to realize how important your profits are and how quickly they could go away.

Just focus on making as much money as you could, or just give up, because you can't really find anything else that would be as troublesome as the feeling of a loss for futile attempt. Just useless loss you could have avoided.

That part hit me hard. I just remember how 10 months back most of us had a big portfolio and how holding on to it made it comparatively so less now.
But again, things could have gone the other way around and so I am not complaining holding on to my coins because there's no loss until we sell at a loss.
May be this time we buy more at these prices and accumulate more so that holding on to it till the new ATH we get a lot more profits than we could.

Just logged in to my freebitco.in account and noticed that I accumulated 39 spins. Spinned them all and got a lucky reward of 5000 lottery tickets along with other base rewards.


Then my eyes got attracted to this banned.



I couldn't help myself but bought 2500 FUN tokens more so that I can get 6 WoF spins from tomorrow  Grin Grin

It means that to have 6 WoF spins you have to hold them for sometime and I doubt that you will get 6 from the next day,by that banner Freebitco.in always tells us the amount of FUN tokens needed to reach the next level but it also list the benefits of that level for people who hold the FUN tokens for 360 days,and it does not the benefits for the next day.

Nevertheless buying FUN tokens is always a good idea,as by holding them for 1 months,3 months,6 months and 1 year the number of our daily spin increases,while we may also benefit from a huge rise in the price of Bitcoin and getting 2 for the price of 1.

How come I didn't think of it. Buying 2500 FUN tokens just gives you a start of 1 WoF spin.
So buying it now would add 1 WoF spin to my existing ones. Why do Freebitco.in advertise it in this way then.
Although I am not complaining because I would still get the spin after holding it for a while but don't you think it's more like a clickbait.
2048  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: My Recent Experience at a Land-Based Casino on: July 09, 2022, 01:21:48 PM
I recently visited a land-based casino after a long time to gamble, have some drinks and enjoy live music with a couple of my good buddies. Not long after we settled in, we heard one of the casino workers yelling at one of the gamblers. He said, "Sir please you have to leave now. You come here every day and you keep losing. Please be considerate of your wife and your newborn babies." The backstory is that this particular man is a very popular gambler at the casino not because of his winnings but because he keeps losing. Despite his losses, he would return to the casino the next day to gamble. From the story, his wife had just been delivered with twins. I would later find out that the casino worker is his nephew.

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?

Considering the case I would definitely ban the gambler because losing one gambler won't make that huge of a difference than losing an honest employee.
Also, I would be rather happy to know the fact that the employee really is concerned about the gambler and so wants him to stop gambling.

As a manager then you wont really be seeing this situation to be good for the business but for some natural humanitarian act or being just too concern then it would really be considerable.
Even myself would definitely not make out any decision against the worker who do show off some concern but it would definitely tell him that it would be better if those advises would really
be said on a silent or private way on which it wont really be getting much  attention around or insider the casino.Its really natural for us to make out such reaction specially if we do see
that it is one of our relative or loved ones who are on such situation.Getting concern would really be that a human instinct behavior.

I would agree to your point of telling the worker to say the same thing in private instead in front of everyone.
This might create unwanted attention from other gamblers as well. May be the others start thinking about their families too.
This might steal away some of the business from the casino.

If small investors still believe in Bitcoin, it sheds a signal that we don't get a bottom range yet. The psychological cycle of market is repeated and bear market only comesto the end if small investors give up and feel very anger.

I think Bitcoin is in accumulation, not side way for a good bounce in a few months. After that, we will see another dump to wash out most of small investors. After a wash out, the market will have a long side-way to wash out rest of small investors. It will be very long waiting time to see ending of this bear market.

I wish that's not true but sadly the fact is that the whales make the most of their money by manipulating the small investors.
I strongly feel that the current increase in price of bitcoin might also be a manipulation by the whales to trap the small investors and suck their money.
It would take a long time before see BTC going bullish this time.

2053  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Can change of environment have an effect on gambling addiction. on: July 08, 2022, 06:06:44 AM
You will agree with me that society and the environment can have a great influence on the lifestyle of every individual, you often can find yourself doing, or being involved in that activity that almost everyone is involved with in that your locale as a result of influence. Now considering someone who is a gambling addict, is there any possibility of him/her becoming better if they are relocated to another environment or society where people around are not involved in gambling?

Can someone still develop the habit of gambling and become an addict even though no one around gambles?


It actually depends on what kind of surroundings the person is having.
If the person is having a surrounding where people are not involved in gambling but at the same time they are not motivating others to quite gambling then there's still a chance that the person might not quite gambling.
If the person is having a surrounding where people are not involved in gambling and motivates others to quit gambling then there are good chances that the person might quit gambling because of the influence.
And last but not the least it also depends on the individual's will power to control himself.
There are people who have a surrounding of gambling addicts yet they quit gambling.
At least to me everything depends on the will of the person, many people once they realize that a loved one is addicted to gambling do their best to produce an environment which will allow their loved one to heal and drop the addiction.

But it is the gambler that refuses to listen and keeps gambling anyway despite having everything on their favor to stop their addiction, so as we can see for a person to drop any addiction the motivation needs to come from within, and once that motivation is there then they will be able to overcome their gambling issues even in the most adverse of the circumstances they may find themselves in.

Yes ofcourse, the motivation definitely needs to be there in order for a gambler to leave gambling.
At the same time the surroundings also matters. It would be easier for a person with surroundings who are non gamblers to leave gambling.
Whereas it would be a little difficult for the same person if he has surroundings who are gambling addicts.
Motivation and surrounding both go hand in hand.

2055  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: If Bitcoin drops to $8k on: July 07, 2022, 04:07:10 PM
Lets assume Guggenheim's Minerd speculation on bitcoin having an ultimate bottom of $8k if it hits $30k referencing the "[U.S. Federal Reserve] being restrictive., Currently bitcoin price is below $28k and from the look of things this speculation might and might not be accurate but what if bitcoin price falls to this very dip.

I am asking what will you sell to buy more bitcoin if this speculation ever happens or will you choose to  sell off all your bitcoin due to FUD.

That would definitely be a buy signal because "buy the rumor" "buy the dip".
I wouldn't sell anything to buy bitcoin but may be I would close my fixed deposit to buy more bitcoin.
May be if I have enough spare cash then I would use that money to buy bitcoin.
As long as we are using the opportunity to buy the dip I am good.

2057  Economy / Gambling / Re: Betting Bots and Simulators on: July 07, 2022, 03:50:50 PM
My starting point of analysis to any "system" is that it is in all likelyhood, a bad idea and comes from a misconception or a mathematical mistake. On this case it seems exactly that. To be honest, I have only seen two "methods" to beat the casinos that actually work. The first one was based on detecting irregularities in roulettes in physical casinos, the other is in sports betting based on wrong odds settings.
Hey paxmao, there are other ways, as i always say, we can't always win, but we can't always lose... You need to trust in your luck some time. And then run bots for the long run. I have been hitting multipliers like x7000, x99,000, x10,000 in the past 2 weeks. Is what i decide after running some simulations and now after 152,500 bets i'm in profit.

Damn, those are some nice high multipliers you have there. Can you tell us how did your bot help you in hitting these multipliers.
Or are these just of luck?

Quote
There are things that I don't know what a bot can do in a casino, if I use a bot in a casino it is so that it tells me which are the moves that I have to make, and I don't think there is one like that, I don't care if the bot get codes, if I don't program how could I make changes? I don't see much use for this bot thing, what takes away is all the emotion of playing and earning that they eliminate the account for cheating.

If you have a betting logic i can create the bot for you Wink

I think danadc wants to have a customizable option to control the bot. He doesn't want the bot to be dependent on it's developer for a change in strategy.
But in this case, your bot is just a simulator of the bets. So there's no need for a change of strategy in here right.

Any of you guys placed any bets for the BTC/ ETH price prediction this time ?
I found ETH price betting to be more rewarding this time since the odds are better for ETH than BTC.
Below are my bets and I think I might win something this time.

As I know nothing about ETH (call me oldschool) I placed bets on BTC only. And on FUN, as the final price seems to be quite obvious and probably it was the last time when we had so wide range (it was already said they will split the 0.005-0.01 range) Odds are very low (1.05 haha) but it is better than nothing.

And for BTC, we have finally 1.93 on 20-25 and 2.99 on 15-20. Looks like a good deal.


I have not made bets on ETH, the truth is that right now it seems to me that the entire market is very distorted, for me a valid bet for ETH is that it remains below $1500, but considering that the volatility is enormous and that we can take into account that voltaildaid could affect a lot if Bitcoin decides to make a very strong upward movement, it could take me out of everything and I would lose. I don't know, but something I've learned over the years is that as long as BTC keeps going down it's going to be a great opportunity to increase satoshis, but in my case I really like to use the multiplier, and make some sports bets


The market is indeed distorted but at the same time we can only increase our stack of satoshis in such markets.
As for the betting prediction part, we should never bet with huge amounts on it.
Consider it as a game and you won't have to worry about the outcome and still enjoy the predictions.
I have bet on many predictions on freebitco.in and most of the times I hit my price range due to the fact that I cover the obvious ranges.
2059  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The Opposite always happens on: July 03, 2022, 12:43:22 PM
Everyone is saying that the BTC bottom isn't in yet, this is literally what everyone is saying and most times the opposite of what people are expecting is what always happens in the crypto space, do not sleep on 10k per BTC, it may never happen.

Currently BTC is at $19k and I will say that even if the bottom is here or not, we should still keep monitoring it.
It's not that BTC will bounce back and go to the ATH overnight. It will take a good amount of time to even cross $30k.
So even buying at $30k and going all the way to the ATH will give us more than 100% gains.
So why not just wait to see bitcoin bounce back rather than waiting for a bottom and trying to get in taking up all the stress.
Let the market do it's wonders and take a break while the prices are stable.
2060  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Marketplace (Altcoins) / Re: What can be done in this situation? on: July 03, 2022, 12:40:03 PM
What can be done to a bounty manager that failed to update the spreadsheet since the beginning of a bounty campaign till the end of the campaign and even after he did nothing, if you are wearing such signature campaign what will you do? Since you need to promote another project.

It should take just two weeks to decide if the project is really worth it or not.
If the manager hasn't updated the spreadsheet on the first week then we can still give him time for another week to update it.
But if he hasn't done it even after two weeks then that is enough reason to leave the project because he is not serious about it his work at all.
Promoting a campaign who has careless managers is definitely not something that I would do.
