2141  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Another reason to avoid CEX for buying Bitcoin on: April 15, 2022, 10:33:26 PM
Noncustodial p2p platforms or decentralized exchange have a problem of liquidity at times, and the price of Bitcoins can be some percentage off the current market price.

For example, the person above my have tried to avoid the fees and gone to one of the noncustodial p2p exchanges. Look at the offers at local cryptos. I don't even seen any offer which is 1% off the market price. Some are even over 10% off

---
If the offer is 3% above the market price. The person is going to buy bitcoin, which is less by $150. Now that is even minus the transaction and escrow fees

If you want liquidity and better offer using a centralized exchange is much better. If you don't love KYC, avoid CEXs.

The person should have used advanced exchanges like coinbase pro, binance, Kucoin etc instead of instant fiat to crypto exchanges like coinbase.com

I can agree with your point here. Even if you say you will avail the noncustodial p2p exchanges, check their rates and it is quite expensive.
That means, even if you are not paying high fees, they are already earning because of the expensive rates they are offering.
Just look at your local crypto exchange, they may not be charging you for fees but look at the rates as compared to like binance rate.
If you are a small trader, $73 is a very expensive fee. But for some who want convenience, that amount may not matter to them.

I can say, that man, had very strong determination of achieving his goals in life.
Eating everyday in the same place didn't bother him so long he was on track with his targets.
I commend those kind of people because they are not blaming anyone or the system about their situation in life.
But they are finding ways on how to elevate their status even if they need to sacrifice first.
Some people will complain all day without doing the necessary action.
We need this kind of mindset when we are tight with the budget and wants to achieve something for ourselves.
2143  Economy / Gambling / Re: Freebitcoin.in on: April 14, 2022, 10:25:54 PM

as long as I read your thread before, you never reply or respond all about your question. better to lock this thread and asking a the question on Official freebitco.in thread.

Sir I have given response to most of my threads, just that it delayed. I have to make more research on the discussed so I will have something to say. I can't just come and tell something I am not well grounded. And also locking a thread might not be a best option, because other people are also in need of the said question answers from other people responses. They are some questions you asked the official website that you might not get the real answer you want but other or public opinion might give the answer from different views.

Therefore, sir, I am very much sorry if I delay for the respond. That not withstanding, the site is okay, even though I have not played their games but from the looking at the surface of the site. The site features are transparent. Average network connection can access the site.

You won't get the experience you need unless, you try the site even with small funds.
Also, there is hourly faucet in freebitco, you can use that to play the multiply btc game or even in the betting section.
Most tabs are self-explanatory, so I don't think you will be lost in the site.
Because if you will not give it a try, I don't think checking the interface would give you the experience you want.
2144  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quick Survey: why do you specifically use crypto to gambooool ? on: April 14, 2022, 09:43:10 PM
Basically the answer is: because crypto casinos are less greedy than fiat ones, and give customers superior opportunities to play more time using less money, if they wish.
I also didn’t put any of my bank details or fiat account in any site unless really needed or it’s a bank related transactions. Why use your identity or input card details in playing when you can play only without putting details of yourself and just enjoy many casino or games. Thankfully crypto provides ways to pay without any worries of being track and allow us also to gambling and at the same time to earn thru trading or investing. Being not monitored by any bank when there is always a need for transaction or happening in our account feels safer to do gambling. If only there will be more online local shops that we can also pay thru crypto then there will be no need for me to use any bank in paying for online transactions.
There are really people who are really that paranoid when it comes to anonymity but there are some which doesnt care on using them specially on centralized platforms or something that do ask out some KYC.

Gambling in crypto did really become more better when crypto exist where anonymity is been the key and what makes it more interesting but since these platforms are really that becoming centralized
or regulated then expect that they would abide government rules and regulations which sooner or later we would really be seeing that they would be requiring KYC but
not for now.

If you are a high roller, expect to submit KYC details even for most of these crypto casinos.
But if you are a small time gambler, almost all of these casinos won't ask your KYC even if they have license.
But it is true, as they operate to abide the protocols of the government where it is located, they are heading to compulsory KYC.
For now, let us enjoy that most of these crypto casinos are not requiring KYC. Take that as advantage over fiat-based casinos.
2145  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Quick Survey: why do you specifically use crypto to gambooool ? on: April 13, 2022, 11:00:17 PM
The reason is that I can play gambling without anyone knowing and I don't have to use my bank to deposit the money. I can use a wallet in the market or any other personal wallet without filling in the required forms if we use a bank as a source of funds for gambling. The deposit process is also relatively faster than depositing through a bank. But there is a possibility that later gambling sites will also require verification from every gambler, even though they use crypto to gamble.
You could really able to differentiate their main features compared to a fiat casino.In crypto you wont;

1. Need to link your bank or credit card
2. No KYC
3. No hassle on making deposits/withdrawals
4. Wide variety of games

You could really have your own reason but most likely we crypto gamblers are just having the same.

This is true for a lot of several casinos here found in the forum.
But if the casino is also accepting fiat, they may ask you to submit KYC.
But that is the advantage of crypto casinos, you can gamble without disclosing your identity.
And if you are a small timer, you have no worries of playing just for the sake of entertainment.
I found out that most of the casinos here even bookies are accepting smaller bets.
The convenience and easy access I believe, are just few features that we can appreciate about these online casinos.
This is why during this pandemic period, a lot of these users have discovered themselves in playing in one of these casinos.
2146  Economy / Economics / Re: Is crypto the final stage in the evolution of money? on: April 13, 2022, 10:19:32 PM
Considering at this time Crypto is booming for sure someday when the boom is over everyone will be looking for something new, that's something that's for sure and indeed this is quite a natural thing because it will continue like that, something that started with unfamiliarity slowly became known and boomed after it returns to the point of being bored and starting to be abandoned.
but indeed this in my opinion will still take a long time to happen because if you look at bitcoin which is now the benchmark in Crypto they have now mined around 19 million and that means there are still 2 million there and they will be finished in one century. I think this will happen but in quite a while

There will always be a new one that will be created to address the situation that we are in.
The era of cryptocurrency may live longer, but we have to be open mind that in the future something will come up.
Maybe more advanced than bitcoin or any other alt, who knows?
But I don't think, crypto will be the final stage, we are still evolving and there will be new ideas that will come about.
2147  Economy / Economics / Re: Gold , Silver Or Crypto? on: April 12, 2022, 11:47:49 PM
Many financial advisors suggest gold , silver and cryptocurrencies as the best investment for this decade! what do you think?
No need to confuse with Gold and silver, all know how precious these things in the world.
and for the new era of technology, cryptocurrency is also considered as a worthy investment, but also risky enough. No confusion again, as long as what we invest is the precious crypto, it will be a good investment, but if it is about shitcoins, it will end as shit investment. the one that becomes the most recommended and worthiest crypto investment is Bitcoin, that's it, moreover for long term.

And if you can afford, why not invest in both, precious metals and crypto?
A tangible asset is always better to have in diversifying your portfolio.
And when it comes to crypto, better invest in valuable coins like bitcoin.
But in my case, I am more on gold than silver. Because with gold, if you have no money, you can easily pawn it.
Whereas, with silver not many shops are accepting it as pawn.
2148  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Does staking even make any sense on: April 12, 2022, 11:02:52 PM
How do people even enjoy staking their coins and tokens? I'm confused, yesterday I tried to stake some amount of stable coin aka USDT on Binance Exchange and it is worth 1000$ but the return on this in a year is 95$ lol, I laughed so hard that I almost flipped my laptop, why the heck people doing this?.
Perhaps, $95 is already big compared to what you get upon depositing your $1000 in the bank. Does have any banks give you that percentage return? Probably, no.

For you, it never makes sense but for those who just hold their crypto and wanted to grow their money through staking, that was much appreciated. Plus, they never pay taxes unlike if you put your money in the bank.

Well, it wasn't a big issue if people do staking, putting their money in the bank, or do trading. They'll choose where they feel comfortable.

This is one way to look at it. Because most banks are offering very little interest, it is like you are just basically letting them store your funds.
So if you have no plans for example in your stable coin, better stake or put into fixed/flexible savings where you will get more.
It may not be big but at least while waiting for the right time to spend, it gained something.
But you need to consider the platform that you will be putting your funds, because most will disappear into thin air.

2149  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: newbie invest on: April 12, 2022, 10:35:26 PM

Bitcoin is overvalued and it is impossible to earn big profits investing in Bitcoin. Now NFT is more popular trend and NFT grow in price even more than Bitcoin. That is why appear a lot of NFT collections like this https://twitter.com/SweepiesNFT/status/1511461460609667078 that attract users.

There are a lot of scams and very often newbies invest money is scams.
That is why it is necessary to check everything about the project not to invest money in scams.

Very often newbies make mistakes and invest in projects that are scams.
Because very often scams offer best investment conditions and big profit that is more then can offer good and prospective projects.

This is the reason why even if we say bitcoin is overvalued, at least we know, it won't disappear like most NFT projects.
If you are a newbie in this market, better invest in top alts first. Learn the market, educate yourself with types of projects.
Don't forget to include bitcoin in your portfolio, because you will find out that when all alts are exiting the game, btc will stay in this market.
2150  Economy / Gambling / Re: 🚀Moonbet Crypto Sportsbook & Casino | 💸Instant $250 Deposit Bonus on: April 11, 2022, 09:55:03 PM
Can we get Moonbet by wagering? or it can only be acquired by buying it in exchange? Where I can see all your current promotion I am interested in your new gambling site and the opportunity to invest, I missed a lot of new gambling sites that offers investment and I don't want to miss this chance again.

At the moment, no. However, we are building out two things: a loyalty program and an affiliate program. Both of these will allow you to earn Moonbet by either bringing other people into play, or playing yourself!

Hi thanks good to know, I will invite some of my friends to play in Moonbet. I think for now I just buy and hold Moonbet tokens the rewards I will get is Moonbet too? or stable coin? and the reward will depends on the profit of the site or there is a fixed reward to the holders?

The rewards for MBET holders will be in BUSD and distributed through the BNB Smart Chain directly into the wallets. The rewards are 100% tied to the profits of the site.

However, we are also creating systems for holders to earn MBET tokens through organic marketing. This allows the players to help their own investment by bringing visability to the project, while adding MBET tokens to their bag.

Normally, casino token has difficulty in attaining success even within their casino itself.
I only see couple of casino tokens, that so far are portraying a good outcome of implementation.
Meaning, some players or users are really interested of holding the token long term.
So we will watch out here if you will be the next casino that will attain good results for your token.
Also, do you think you have advantage of distributing BUSD to the holders instead of let us say, BTC, ETH or BNB?
2151  Economy / Gambling / Re: ♦️Coinslotty.com | Up to 20% Cashbacks | Crypto casino | Multi currency wallet♠ on: April 11, 2022, 09:40:37 PM
I'm sorry I got a little bit confused when I saw game balance in fiat currency... Does it mean I can make deposits in fiat currencies as well?

I remember betnomi's style before. You can deposit any crypto, but once they credited it to your account, they will automatically convert it to USD.
So within their casino, you are playing in USD and not your deposited currency.
If possible, can the casino maintain the currency depending on what you deposit?
Or is it because you wanted to accommodate even noncrypto users, so they basically know how much they are playing?
I agree, that with crypto, you don't know the outright conversion of your funds in USD.
2152  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What about bitcoin paying in stores on: April 11, 2022, 09:29:04 PM
It depends on where the store or merchant is basing their own exchange rate.
So it doesn't mean that they are following the global rates.
Usually, the local merchants even local exchanges have slightly different rates.
In this case, you need to check the merchant's exchange rate itself, if they have app or something.
And if you don't want to deal with the volatility factor, you can use USDT for payment.
That is, if the merchant or shop is accepting USDT and not BTC.
2153  Economy / Gambling / Re: Which would be better ? on: April 11, 2022, 09:07:57 PM
If I chose to start my career in gambling, then I would choose something that requires intellectual effort - either poker or sports betting. It seems to me that such an activity is less dangerous in terms of addiction, plus it makes sense, unlike slots where you just need to press a button. As for profitability, I would not count on it, first of all, this is entertainment, and a very small percentage of all gamblers win.
You have good self-control to avoid gambling addiction, soccer gambling is more precisely a hobby developed based on interest about football, then it can be increased for profitability on gambling platforms, but for slot games it seems unfair because it spends time only to lose.
And some of the gambling games I've noticed up to now are just football betting which I don't think will make a person addicted to it. Compared to slot games and others that tend to use games at a glance, of course someone's psychology will be easily attracted and will continue to try. While football betting, as you said, is based on hobbies and even interests, the level of addiction will be minimal.

If you will make sports betting as your career, you do have the chance to make it good if you know very well know the sports.
Unlike with usual casino games, which are mostly based on luck. This for me, is not advisable to make a living out of it.
I can agree with sports betting, as some people already shown that they can make a living out of it.
But with luck-based games, nope. You are basically depending on your luck on this one.
Whereas, with sports betting or poker, you are depending also on your skills and knowledge.
The luck is still part of it, but you have better chance of winning if you know the sports or the game poker.
2154  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Do not trust this devil woman, she wants Bitcoin dead on: April 11, 2022, 08:24:41 PM
You over-inflate horror stories behind whatever she said. She's the secretary of the treasury. Of course that her aim is to protect US Dollar. Of course that her rhetoric will be more against Bitcoin than pro Bitcoin. What you'd expect?! Somehow I don't understand why in 16 posts nobody said it already: her statements and views are almost certainly biased.
Could not agree less with you.


Devil woman
Do you think crypto cares, the community cares, the free people cares about what she or anyone one else who are trying to keep crypto down for ages? That's an old women with old mindset, speaking garbage. Does she even know how to use a smartphone, or a laptop. I bet she even don't know which are called internet browser LOL

Crypto survived over 10 years. Nothing stopped its value to go over $65K and I do not think anyone would ever stop it. In fact their printed money are losing it's value. In Sri Lanka it seems plain papers have higher value than a bank note.

By now, no expert or self-proclaimed expert even influential people can bring bitcoin down.
We survive throughout these years, with so many trolls, influential people or rich people giving their own predictions or speculations.
She can give her own opinion but we know that the market doesn't revolve from somebody else's opinion.
Most are giving their opinion based on what they perceive about bitcoin market, or it is about protecting their interest.
But at the end of the day, bitcoin market will move according to the sentiments of the people using it.
2155  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Boxing Speculation, Odds and Predictions on: April 11, 2022, 08:02:11 PM
Well, it seems that you got it right! Murata only lasted 9 rounds and he can already barely fight on the 7th round and only managed to defend himself even if his defense is breaking bit by bit because GGG is really looking to knock him down and produce a KO victory. GGG still have those capabilities we discussed, he proved it today against the Japanese boxer! Murata's camp threw a towel when he knocked down and ended the fight with a TKO.
GGG has shown his power - no doubt he is more powerful that Murata.
Earlier I though since Murata is young he has amazing speed so he can win - undercard proved me wrong.

Murata was able to punch GGG lots of times during the early rounds. He can keep up with GGG or maybe, the latter just testing Murata and gives those early rounds for him. Later on in the fight, GGG now shows his destructive power and Murata can't do something about it. In the end, GGG got the 9th round TKO.

His camp concedes at the 9th round and accepts that GGG is too much for their Murata.

That's how powerful GGG is even at 40 years old. I just don't know if he can show the same strength once he face a much younger Canelo in September.
Well most of the member predicted that GGG is going to prove that he is more powerful than Murata. But I was adamant that Murata will win. Murata did show his strength but what was missing was his will.
Every time I bet on someone I loose. That is why I have decided not to bet.

Maybe, you have no luck for now in boxing. Your time will come also.
As we have seen in the dedicated thread for GGG vs Murata, GGG was indeed the favorite.
I also thought that Murata will put up a good fight as he has the youth among the two.
But anyway, seems that GGG vs Canelo has the possibility to happen again.

edit : GGG vs Canelo is indeed happening this September 16.
Maybe, last hurrah for GGG before retirement.
Canelo should really be prepared on this one.
2156  Economy / Gambling / Re: Affiliate Program for Crypto Casino on: April 11, 2022, 07:24:25 PM
I thought this is a casino when I first saw it. Is this a system where a casino can use their program to implement it on their casino for affiliate program. One thing I noticed in your post is that you are looking for affiliates so you can earn. I visited ocean affiliate and what I saw is that it's not just ltc casino that it's in their but also other casinos.
The site not a gambling site but the content inside it related to gambling and from what i see that the owner of this site focused for allifiate program from several gambling sites so basically he promoting it through his site to get affiliate commissions and those who want to join as affiliate partner can contact him directly but i do not familiar to those casinos which promoted by OP
Promoting four casinos using affiliate links isn't really something that i can rely on from a single website especially if they are not well known. Many blogs already use the same technique with other services , but this shouldn't deny the fact that everybody should do his own researches before joining any of them even you trust the ref publisher.
Personally i still have doubts about the promoted websites especially if they only rely on the ref links methods for promotion .

Most review sites are after for the possibility of getting affiliate commission.
This is why for example, you can see some shady big casinos in those sites.
Because they are hoping that some players will use their links and not really thinking about the repercussion of giving them good rating.

Before anyone  gets  tempted  to be associated  with this casino please  follow  the scam  accusation opened aganist  them and how they  have been dealing so far.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5389546.msg59516351#msg59516351

Be aware!!!

If you happen to be a player from this forum, better look for existing issues of the casino, if there's any.
Because that will save you from possible disappointment in the future.
2157  Economy / Gambling / Re: Online casino. What's the reliability of the technology? on: April 11, 2022, 06:36:21 PM

If we are talking about slots in online casinos, software is usually provided by well-known providers. I think if someone wants to sell their products in such a specialized industry as gambling, it has to be of the highest quality. I do not think casinos want to change such software to set the RTP unfavorable for players. Of course, these things can happen at little-known casinos where the software is self-made. Therefore, to avoid unpleasant surprises, it is better to play in large and famous casinos.

You have a point on that. As we can't determine its technology, we are just relying on the casino itself.
If they are reputable and considerably one of the top casinos, it is their responsibility to make sure they are also getting quality services from top providers.
Because if there will be vulnerabilities and other related-concerns, these will be detected by some players who know how to test the service.
So in this case, if you are a gambler, you are not looking at the reliability of the technology but the casino's reputation in general.
2158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: [BOXING]: RYAN GARCIA vs EMMANUEL TAGOE - April 9 on: April 10, 2022, 11:47:28 PM


Yeah, it was very clear that Tagoe strategy is not to engage Ryan and just run, and as you can see the crowd is not very happy and you can hear the boos. But you can't do anything about it, if the other one doesn't want to fight toe to toe then it's not Ryan's fault. Nevertheless, a win is a win so he is back and it seems that he has matured though, no more name calling after the fight.

It takes two to Tango and Tagoe is not cooperative, he is not there to win he is just there to hang on, he doesn't want a knockout coming from Ryan on his resume, he wants one of the guys who extends Ryan to a full 10 rounds, it's very disappointing to see a match like this, but what can you expect from a b or c level fighter.
Ryan still has to fight a fighter coming from top levels to assure himself that the demons are all gone, baed on this fight it's not yet, you are not getting a good mark fighting guys like this.

It is expected that he will just hang on with Ryan because he is afraid to get knock out. And too much for him talking about him giving Ryan a hard time, hhehehe. He is obvious just a cherry pick for Ryan to knock out though, but it didn't happen but still good for him to take this win and boost his confidence again.

On the below article, it discusses the flaws of Garcia -

https://www.boxing247.com/boxing-news/ryan-garcia-dominates-emmanuel-tagoe-boxing-results/218113

So for the next boxer who will fight Garcia, he may want to check out those above pointers.
But he may change his tactics as it was like a comeback fight after a long break.
Though it is a cherry pick for Garcia, Tagoe managed to finished the 12 rounds but he was more on the Rigo's style here.

2160  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Inoue vs Donaire II discussion on: April 10, 2022, 10:33:13 PM
Well, we just have to focus on their current upcoming matches. Casimero and Butler is about to happen while for Donaire and Inoue is on the next months.

And these trio could land a match for each of them maybe after several months again or possibly by next year. So it's going to take a lot of time before it happens and we just have to wait for their matches for now.
After Inoue vs Donaire rematch, we will probably see either one of them against Casimero next year in the 1st quarter because this year just too short to have some preparations as Inoue vs Donaire's date is June.
That's very likely.

These three in the triangle will be the individuals that are likely to have a match with Casimero so whoever is going to be their next interest for their match then it will happen.

But we have to wait for that long and let's all just finish their matches before going that far. We don't know if the match or next fight will be announced by that quarter you've mentioned but yeah, everything is possible.

But don't forget that if by chance Butler beats Casimero, those possible fights may not happen.
So in this case, Casimero should really win over Butler. But their fight is already sure right?
Because I've read in the Casimero's thread that their camp is looking for possible replacement because Casimero is facing a lawsuit.
Though no confirmation from both sides, so more than likely this will push thru.
But Donaire, on the other hand, got first with Inoue here.
